Assignment: Pushing and pulling the Envelope - Phase I - Creating the opening Basically the idea was to create
openings in foam cubes. These openings were designed for different actions; sleeping,
bathing, cooking, eating, working and relaxing. Every action was turned and
twisted to understand its requirements according to the opening. Some of the
terms considered were private/public, social/asocial, view, orientation, size,
scale, atmosphere, comfort, what kind of light could best support the action,
and most important of all: The body-room relationship. Basically the
openings were seen as a frame in the first phase. A frame for further
development in three different investigation phases later in the assignment.
