Collective Living - Prototypical Student Housing | Paris Tsernos

Tutor: Rob Stuart-Smith Assistant tutor: Tyson Hosmer Team: Paris Tsernos, Sophoklis Koutsourelis, Marya Filatova, Sakshi Mathur, Paris Tsernos A proposal for a collective student housing project that embraces the technological potential of the internet of things in order to self-organise social and practical complexity on demand. Using social media students are able to directly customise their own space, contribute to communal space, and collectively vote on the temporary emergence of building scale social spaces for use by the larger collective. The building is conceived of as a networked organisation of tectonic parts that embody relational computational rule sets between themselves and in relation to user’s desires, acting as an interface for communication.
