Piet Mondrian was an important
contributor to the De Stijl art
movement. He evolved a
non-representational form. De
Stijl sought to express a new
utopian ideal of spiritual harmony
and order. They simplified visual
compositions to a grid of the
vertical and horizontal directions,
combined with a strong
asymmetrically; the use of pure
primary colors with black and
white; and the relationship
between positive and negative
elements in an arrangement of
non-objective forms and lines.
For this assignment, I was interested in
finding the meaning of the straight lines
and their variations in design. The field
of design is very new to me that I would
like to understand it from basics.
Process:
1. I traced Mondrian painting and made
floor plan, elevation and section.
2. The cage like iteration that I created
had no interaction in each other in the
3-D space, so I created another but
slightly smaller in scale of plan,
elevation, and section object and put
into the first iteration.
3. The iteration was not exciting than I
expected that I decided to cut and to
bend diagonally and made connected
those rectilinear. The networking of
each element starts reacting in each
other and it produced visually
interesting spaces. More interesting
finding through this practice was paper
as material. I was using paper for
creating iteration and found interests in
its elastic behaviors; sagging, bending,
and curving with tension.
Icebreaker
I love to look at other students work.
I learned an interesting composition
of beautiful curvlinear and different
approach to the Mondrian paintings
with high craftmanship. Spaces that
they created were very complex and
interesting.
Path and Node: Inspirations
The path and node remind me
these words:
Infrastracture
Networking
Communication
Nest
Playful design
Interaction
Kinetic
Intergration
Light
Path and Node: 001/002Subtleness in space
I wondered how we feel the subtle
difference of many entrance. Chairs
and shelves
Path and Node: details Through this exercise I learned that
design making is a process of
realization of integration of culture,
society, and environment through
problem solving. It started little by
little but while dealing with material
deeply the inspirations would be
coming up. The engagement
and development of each stage
made us rationalized and we
became observant. Creating
iteration is conversation with self:
the clearer finding of our identity,
the better solving problems.
The critique is a collaboration work
that leads us consensus, unity, and
community in design.
Onward and UpwardIn this assignment, we got a set
of questions:
What makes it home rather than
mere shelter?
What spatial qualities promote
or undermine your notion of
home?
Where are the most enjoyable
places within your home and
what specifically contributes to
this feeling?
How does light qualities,
materials, surface finishes,
spatial relations and order
impact your notion of home?
Definition of Home, House, and Shelter
I started with finding the definition of Home, House, and Shelter. From our discussion, we
found out the “House” is somehow between “Home” and “Shelter”. The important difference
between Home and Shelter is that “Home” has connotation of memory, history and emotion but
“Shelter” has meaning of temporary, protection, and survival. There are physical approach to
the house and physiological approach to the house.
Onward and UpwardInspiration: Tezuka architects, box houses by Kazuhiko Namba
1. Three-dimensional minimum house
2. House open internally and externally
3. One-room house
4. Nature in the city
5. Standardization of the construction method (SE construction system)
6. Sustainable materials
7. Maximization of cost performance
8. Prototype of urban house

1. Functionalism/program-ism is a design concept that gives top priority to the 3rd
layer. 2. Technology-ism/structuralism is a design concept that gives top priority to the 1
st layer.
3. Modernism is a design concept that incorporates functionalism and technology-Ism. 4. Post-modernism/form-ism is a design concept that gives top priority to the 4
th layer.
5. The present sustainable design concept that gives top priority to the 2nd
layers. 6. However, properly speaking, sustainable design should involve all four layers.
One of approach of thinking about how to build an architecture by Kazuhiko Namba
Narrative writing
Structure + form + senses + emotion + energy flow = breathing
How I feel the world:
In the morning hazy view is front of me. I am reacting only
for the light. It seems like I am looking up the sky from
under the ocean. The sky is blue and transparent. It is
reflecting the light and twinkling. I am inflating and
compressing by breathing. I imagine that water is warm
and feels good. The motion is like jelly fish. It opens and
closes, opens and closes….
Before kids are waking up, I take a shower. The sun light
is falling down from the sky. I feel each drops of the warm
water. It vitalizes each cell of entire my body. I can taste
water. My internal world and external world starting get
merged for welcoming the morning.
Concept: The concept behind my installation work is the creation of
spaces that evoke the everyday gestures we ignore, like breathing;
memories we forgot, such as birthing; feeling we deny, like pain; and
thoughts we contradict, like love and hate. I am interesting in people’s
reactions and conversations when they encounter unexpected
environment loaded with perceptual stimuli.
For home, I expect spaces of integration of mind, body and
inspirations in everyday rituals as individuals and as family members.
Since we are such energy beings that we carry all kinds of flow at all
the time; we are constantly stimulated by visuals, smells, noises,
tastes, and touches and they create our emotions and lead us to do
actions. Sometimes the actions and emotions are overwhelming us
and we lose the balance. Then I do holding laundry, putting away
dishes and make a cup of green tea. The subtle fragrance of a cup of
tea makes me calm and gives me a chance to come back to myself. I
think these small everyday rituals develop our essence of being in the
dwelling. Dwelling is the place for energy flow and charging. Dwelling
itself breathing internally and externally by energy flow.
In among of everyday rituals, I would love to focus on dwelling that
breathes.
Bone structure
The importance of learning from the
born structure is that reveals the logic
behind the strucure.
Bone structure: Materialecology
Materialecology in design seeks to promote a synergetic approach
to form-finding using intergrated digital and physical processes.
Through simulation and analysis, material performance may be
evaluated and instrumentalized as a means for design generation.
The research shown here illustrates different facets of this approach
which views geometry, material and performance as equipotent
elements of the design process.
Materialecology undertakes research in advanced digital
applications for architectural practice and pursuits their contribution
to a design paradigm promoting generative design processes.
Curent research attempts to establish new forms of design
knowledge and new processes of practice at the interface of design,
computer science, structural engineering, biology, and ecology.
Through this exercise I finally found my true interest in architecture that is Materialecology by Neri Oxman.
Acording to her difinition:
Materialecology was founded in 2006 by Neri Oxman as an interdisciplinary research initiative that
undertakes design research in the intersection between architecture, engineering, computation, biology and
ecology.As such, this initiative is concerned with material organization and perfomance across all scales of
design thought and practice. Material is interpretd merely as any physical entity which corresponds
and reacts with its environment. As such, it seeks to promote and define a design research agenda
which is ecological in nature, in ideology and in material practice: it aims at embracing the evoling
elements of change in both (and indeed related) social constructs
and environmental descriptions of the ever changing built environment.
Dwelling that breathes: Inspiration I was always interested in these
generative compornent form and
idea. I would love to explore thses
inspirations to my project: Dwelling
that breathes.
Skin My objective for the membrane
development was to provide a
continuity of between skin and
structural frame.
