SAILING PODS
take the idea of HANGING YOUR KIDS ART ON THE FRIDGE. NOW! as a teacher, THINK OF HANGING YOUR STUDENTS PODS ON THE BUILDING’s FACADE.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN OCCUPANTS GET TO PARTICIPATE IN THE ACT OF ASSEMBLAGE?
SAILING PODS
Glide and Trace.
”Sailing stones are part of the geological phenomenon in which rocks move and inscribe long tracks along a smooth valley floor without animal intervention.”
Architecture, in its conventional realm, tends to be deterministic, static, macroscopic, and an enclosed system. The built environment gravitates towards an assemblage through a static and a creator’s bias. What happens when occupants get to participate in the act of assemblage?
The school becomes a place of assembly. An “Assembly of Pods”. Like the Sailing Stones, the students’ pods get to move and inscribe through the building. Making an end stop to become either an architectural element, ornament, or space.
