House : beginning concepts

It is said, that an architectural "object modifies human behaviors and technical performance." However, we do not want to impose a rigid linear pathway on the inhabitant's movements (hallways), but have a layout formed by their lifestyles, working/living habits, etc. Humans do not simply move in orthogonal paths.

We propose a multipurpose skin system. The skin will provide structural support and storage, and can act as partition, furniture or light filter. It will infiltrate and transform )in terms of function) within the house, then exist again at appropriate areas. It will be readable from both a planar and sectional perspective.
