Transient futures exploration
In an attempt to expand the diversity, inclusivity and flexibility of urban settlements without leaving a permanent mark on the environment, Printing with Biofoams: Transient futures explorationinvestigates novel regenerative materialities that have the ability to respond and adapt to changing external as well as internal conditions. Smart materials are dynamic, responsive and adaptable in their nature. This folio considers the importance of understanding the full potential of these novel materials and applying them in ways that expand our experiences and connection with the built environment, rather than trying to confine them to the restricted material applications and performances of the standardized construction industry.
