Living Architecture Spring 2009 Columbia

I found the touching project is very interesting. This project is made up of the skin system and the bone system. The movement of the whole system is very beautiful. And the movement is quite reacted to the input. There is more than one sensor controlling different opening, so the whole system can react accordingly. And it saves material and lighter. This system also easy to apply and be installed to the buildings helps to control the sunlight, sound and etc. http://laf08c.blogspot.com/

It reminds me about the BMW Gina, the soft skin system and the material make it alive.
The movement of the surface is very special; the loose link between hind the bone system inside.

May be the system can be improved by designing a more suitable skin warping method, and use other sensor to make it react to the surrounding more.
