My research explores the relationship between individual embodied perception, architecture and physical environmental forces. At the intersection of these fields, I investigate how architecture can respond more precisely to both, the environments we inhabit and the ways we experience them.
environmental forces
physical environmental forces include temperature, wind, light, sound, humidity, water, pressure and weather. I am particularly interested in natural environments because their conditions change autonomously rather than being fully authored by humans
architecture
architecture considers the spatial, material and technological systems through which individuals encounter their surroundings. I am interested in how architecture filters, modifies or excludes environmental forces.
embodied perception
embodied perception considers how an individual senses, feels and responds to the conditions around them. I am interested in the body not only as something architecture protects, but as the means through which temperature, light, sound and movement are experienced and through which environmental conditions can influence comfort, attention, awareness and emotional state.
