AA Visiting School, Athens, GR, Symmetry Sentience
"Aiming to challenge the phenomenon of perceptual constancy through the design of architectural prototypical families, various morphologies were derived through means of digital computation and various coding techniques in this program. A complete 1:1 scale structure was constructed, enabling human interaction as a result of a series of initial testing models"
