ChromaEnergon

Energy Phenomena In the machine room model, Convection serves as the primary mechanism for transferring heat from the hot plate to the tubes containing thermochromic fluids. This convective process affects the temperature of the thermochromic liquid within the tubes, which in turn changes the chroma i.e, color intensity of the room, thereby influencing the circadian … Read more

Fan heater – Machine Room

This project comprises of three spaces with different conditions, each connected by tunnel of stairs. We start with turning the heating coil on, once the temperature crosses the individual threshold temperatures, the fan in each space switches on accordingly to cool the environment and create distinct environment in each rooms.  Through interconnected spaces with distinct … Read more

SpaceFlex

Balloon-Driven Spatial Alteration Phenomenon: What is Pressure? Pressure and Volume are inversely relatable. When one quantity increases, the other decreases proportionally. If the volume of the space is increased, the pressure inside the volume is decreased. This is applied in pneumatic structures and building environments to balance the indoor environment and structural stability.  Our project … Read more
