Our living and working environments are determined by the measurements of the human body. Too often, this measurements are based on a statistical average or standardisation. The technology of motion capturing allows human movements to be recorded in their 4-dimensional complexity with all individual specifics. With access to this technology, architecture can be tailored more specifically than ever to personal movement patterns.
In the Bachelor Thesis, a residential unit is designed that specifically addresses the 4-dimensional characteristics of human movements. The basis for this will be recorded at the beginning of the semester using a motion capture kit owned by the department.
Like previous BSc. theses, the design also deals with existing contexts. For this purpose, a site is recorded using a 3D laser scan and made available for the design. Formally and constructively, systems of very small building blocks are used. The VRoxel software developed at the department will be the main design medium, allowing intuitive design with 3D scan data, motion capture recordings and millions of tiny building blocks. In a seminar, the digital methods necessary for the elaboration of the design will be deepened.
