Description
At present, material energies that is thermal variation, air velocity, spectrums of light and electricity remain a largely untapped source of innovation and inspiration for architects. Commonly relegated to the production of ambience - moods or effects - energies tend to be explored, in a design context, as little more than metaphor or poetics. Alternatively, they are regarded wholly as a resource for providing preconceived, rule-of-thumb interior comfort zones or as a set of measurables for determining energy efficient buildings. Energies looks at ways of elevating these materials from their dependence on surfaces and services and in so doing, deploying them as building materials in themselves; thus redefining our physical boundaries through a wholly new means of spatial organisation.
