The
aim of this study is the composition and organisation of spatial structures and
relations that focus on human activity and behaviour. Starting from the
understanding of basic natural structures and organisms, we were leaded to the
notion of “hyper organisms”, such as swarms, flocks of birds and insects like ants,
as well. Through the design process we
will get in touch with the study of the structures themselves, with their
functional characteristics and we will try to express them diagrammatically,
defining the rules under of which these structures spread in space.
We
have already talked about the notions of synergy, symbiogenesis,
self-organisation and anastomosis, which form the content of the relations
developed in the hyper-organisms. So, we reduce these relations to relations
between the living members of an urban society by researching their movements,
concentrations and diffusions.
The
research is done in a space that contains the urban landscape and its natural
geographical relief. We consider the space with its elements and data like an
experimental environment, feeding it with the relations between the members of
a city and observing their behaviour. Plans and sections that are produced
during the design process narrate the human activity in the urban environment,
aiming to indicate both free public and housing spaces.
