Inspired by my final Studio IV project in 2010, the Capsule Hotel, and the growing demand for efficient housing due to overcrowding in developing cities, this thesis explores, examines and realizes the need for compact homes. The need of reducing a small living space to the bare necessities, whilst allowing consumers to quickly transform and personalize the function requires great understanding of space efficiency and construction methods. Realizing a carefully designed space is one thing, but actually understanding how or why it is put together in a particular way is another. In this day and age, architects tend to create with the intention of purely design and often forget to consider and fully understand how the pieces actually come together, often leaving such tasks to contractors to "work out". What would happen to the design industry if consumers were not only able to customize and assemble their own apartment furniture, but at the same time get involved in the design of their furniture units? How would this impact consumers as well as the industry? The driving force behind Capsule Homes is to design a product that will provide users with the everyday amenities that can be transformed and customized, whilst involving the consumers in the affordable construction process. My thesis acts as a design proposal for introducing a new method of designing and customizing living spaces, whilst involving the consumer in the process from ordering units to understanding the construction methods, to ultimately living in a customizable quarters. Based on my research and analysis, I will construct a 1/4-scale prototype of thoroughly designed, flat-pack, customizable furniture.

A study was carried out to explore methods for improving the understanding and practice of design as a means of self-discovery, intersubjective dialogue and cultural development. Using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a laboratory and case study, a series of interventions and observations were conducted and recorded. Key concerns were the dialectical relationships between individuals and organization, freedom and language, play and structure, dialogue and community, design and technological systems. The hypothesis was that the pervasive effect of post-structural thinking in architectural theory and design education have created an environment that does not adequately prepare students to explore, engage and communicate personal values in their work, particularly in relation to the immediate contexts in which they find themselves. It also posited that an emphasis on technological systems rather than tectonic and social skill building becomes an additional obstacle to dialogical self-expression and cultural development. The indeterminacy of this hypothesis lead to a series of participatory design proposals with the intent to impact the community context of the Institute.
(cont.) One of these proposals, a small cafe, was structurally implemented and became a reference point for observation and theoretical analysis. The research concluded that architecture studies would be invigorated by embracing the specific and multiple structures of communication that architecture offers - embodied in the concept of symbolic action. These studies should also include the practice of dialogue: personal, conflictual and poetic self-expression as means of contextual transformation and transcendence. This process was best encapsulated in the notion of design as rhetoric - a play of actors engaging contextual structure, personal values and a belief in human communality.

The question of "what is the essence of Chinese architecture" has been puzzling Westerners as well as Chinese since the incept i on of Traditional Chinese Architecture Studies five decades ago . This thesis attempts to answer the question by exploring some spatial concepts which have not been clearly documented before. Based on the exploration of those spatial concepts, a new historical perspective will be introduced to show succinctly how Chinese architecture evolved in the last 30 centuries. The theoretical assumptions guiding the thesis are: the emergence of spatial concepts is due to the fact of man-always-having-to-perceive-spatial-phenomena, the characteristics of spatial concepts are .determined by the relationship between man and phenomena , the relationship between man and phenomena may evolve, the evolution of spatial concepts makes up t he hi story of architecture.

Our life evolves as an interaction between predictable and unpredictable patterns. Variations and impediments stimulate our free, non-mechanical impulses towards unpredictable patterns. At the macroscopic level. history can be seen through an ever-repeating cycle moving from a cumulative trend towards order. to a decaying process. Through a similar viewing lens the past trends that regulated the physical context have been moving from concentrated and dogmatic ideologies. to dispersed and spontaneous ones. Since the 18th century. the Machine Age is geared towards the perfection of the machine. Within this frame of development. it took no more than 200 years for the trend of "machine perfection" to be explicitly applied. at the microscopic level. upon the urban environment. At the urban scale of design. The internationally accepted manifestations of the Chart of Athens have been projecting dogmatic patterns of development: The ''ideal" definitions of uses and "orderliness", inside and outside the built shells. have brought about the problem of segregating the liveliness of the city. Such regulating orders have negated the particularities of the public spaces: the spaces where the mixture of both intended and unintended patterns of activities. and regulated and unregulated forms. acclaimed publicness through time. The physical structure of all urbanizations is the result of the antagonistic interaction between concentrated totalities on the one hand. and dispersive partialities on the other. The first process is the product of the aforementioned deterministic development while the second one is the more unpredictable. evolutionary development that follows. My goal ·is to bring both processes into equal consideration when taking on the role of shaping a micro- scale. public space. It seems that the recent acknowledgments qualities in the "street", the "square". the "19th-century fabric", are weak in challenging the negative aspects of the International style. They still do not escape from generating guiding and deterministic environments. Dissipative urban space aims at a rewardingly rich public experience by embodying. yet not determining. both regulated and "unregulated" physical patterns.

This thesis proposes a framework to articulate certain criteria in creative spatial productions such as architecture. I discuss that a conformist and unquestioning adaptation to conventional space conceptions limits enhancement of spatial sensibility, and consequently creativity. I connect such adaptations to linear progress of continuous and one directional accumulation. Specifically, I call attention to a non-linear progress that surpasses the limitations of these mental constructs and brings in creativity. My discussions are formed around how this non-linear progress might be conceived and sustained in dynamic systems of fragments. The thesis connects this inquiry to the historical and contemporary critique of positivism in the classical sciences, mainly due to the relation of origins of space conceptions to sciences.

Staying alone has been a new living style in densely populated cities like Tokyo. The declining birth rate and marriage rate ignite the "low desire society" that Japan has entered into. When the economy is in stagnation, young people are submissive to what they have and decide to "live in the moment", instead of pursuing a brighter future which is still unknown. More and more Japanese people choose to live single lives. Services for one person such as single-seat restaurants, absolute-quiet cafe, personal entertainment rooms, single wedding and renting relationships have been emerging. Privacy and independence have been main considerations for people who enjoy solitary. "Oneness" has become an initiative to face the uncertainty of life. This thesis is a discussion about the architectural response for people who seek the refugee place for themselves in Tokyo. It is trying to provide a new typology of living and focus on the mundane and daily life. Instead of being a practical machine, a city designed for loneliness with both freedom and restrictions could be a possible state of future. Places designed as "little but certain happiness" will provide the answer for people who focus on the minor satisfaction in their ordinary life.

With a Secretary of Education mandating school choice, advocating for more religious and charter private schools, how does this address the towns that do not have the population to support more than one school? With populations ranging from 500 to 5,000 people, rural towns have to provide public schools that are accessible to everyone in their community. The public school system though is far from perfect. Programs such as "No Child Left Behind" have burdened public schools with meeting standards, leading to multiple choice testing and teaching from standardized textbooks. This has resulted in the standardized architectures of schools which do not address shifts in education towards inventive learning. This culminates in a context where rural towns who do not have the tax base to fund typical new school construction are pushed to go rogue and build a new type of public school.
A school designed not by standardized spaces of the past, but by different scales of inventive learning environments that can produce unique spaces for planned and unplanned learning. This opens an opportunity for a new type of architectural practice that can work with rural towns to reimagine a school that is not dedicated to providing consistent spaces to children, with desks in classrooms, but a school that offers variability. The first thing that emerges in rural towns located on the railroad are their large agricultural facilities with grain silos and warehouses. However, with the storage and production of grain moving to larger regional facilities, the silos and warehouses of these towns are moving towards obsolescence. Yet these structures are centrally located and adjacent to residential areas, suggesting an opportunity to adapt the silos and warehouses into typologies for a new type of school.
Thus, the first project of the school becomes its own construction, managed by the architect and utilizing the skills of the town, to adapt their rural archetypes from grain production to brain production.

Spatial qualities in architectural design cannot be fully evaluated solely by observing geometrical constructs without reference to inhabitants placed inside. However, imagining what happens to those inhabitants and appreciating their movement is difficult even for trained architects. This thesis proposes a computational method for visualizing animated human reactions to physical conditions that are described in a synthetic architectural model. Its goal is to add a sense of place to the geometry, and augment the representation of its spatial quality for designers and audience. The proposed method introduces a walking scale figure in a geometric model. Through agent-based computation, it moves inside the model and displays various behaviors in reaction to spatial characteristics such as transparent surface, opaque surface, perforation and furniture. The figure is assigned a psychological profile with a different degree of sociability, and reacts to proximity and visibility of others in the same model. Today's advanced computational design tools can produce complex forms and sophisticated visualizations of light, materials and geometry. But they are not suitable for helping people to quickly study and understand a spatial design as it would be inhabited. The proposed method lays a foundation for developing a new kind of software that overcomes this shortcoming.

The understanding of space relies on motion, as we experience space by crossing it. While in motion we sense the environment in time, interacting with space. The vision of this thesis is to incorporate people's motion into architecture design process, enabled by technology. Simulation tools that introduce human motion into the design process in early stages are rare to nonexistent. Available tools are typically used for deterministically visualizing figures and simulating pedestrians with the goal of analyzing emergency exits or egress. Such simulations are built without consideration for non-goal oriented interaction with space; this presents a gap for design. Additionally, simulations are generally governed by assumptions regarding people's motion behavior or by analogous models such as collision avoidance methods. However, the use of data from people can elucidate spatial behavior. Advancements in depth camera sensors and computer vision algorithms have eased the task of tracking human movements to millimetric precision. This thesis proposes two main ideas: creating statistics from people's motion data for grounding simulations and measuring such motion in relation to space, developing a Space- Motion Metric. This metric takes pedestrian motion and spatial features as input, seeks actions composed by speed, time, gestures, direction, shape and scale. The actions are elaborated as Space-Motion Rules through substantial data analysis. The non-prescriptive combination of the rules generates a non-deterministic behavior focused on design. This research maps, quantifies, and formulates pedestrian motion correlation with space and questions the role of data for projecting what space could be.

This thesis is proposing a research direction of using computation to help people fully take advantage of spatial cognition in thinking process. As our most important form of information processing spatial cognition provides thinking what logical and verbal means are inferior at. But without external aid, its application is tremendously constrained. Computation could play a role in circumventing those constraints and bridging out the strength of spatial cognition in thinking process. This could augment our of thinking ability and reform our mind.

How does one experience space? What kind of information do humans collect in the process of constructing space in their mind? How does one begin to understand volume, light, texture, material, smell and sense of space? The focus of this thesis investigation is on the basic parameters of space, specifically on sound. What leads to this study is my previous experience performing musical instruments and my fascination in discovering how one acoustically experiences space. It is especially crucial to understand how acoustic influences spatial experience in a time when optical media dominate, and the sense of sight and visual perception have a greater significance. It seems that the elementary relationship between sound and space has been neglected. So, what does it mean to experience space acoustically? Can one choreograph spaces with sounds to change the spatial experience? Can one invent spaces that are formed using sound as building material? The goal of the proposal is to transform one's understanding of space and it's relationship to the surrounding environment by acoustically shaping space.

This thesis describes the development of new concepts in acoustical analysis from their inception to implementation as a computer design tool. Research is focused on a computer program which aids the designer to visually conceive the interactions of acoustics within a geometrical~y defined environment by synthesizing the propagation of sound in a three dimensional space over time. Information is communicated through a unique use of images that are better suited for interfacing with the design process. The first part of this thesis describes the concepts behind the development of a graphic acoustical rendering program to a working level. This involves the development of a computer ray tracing prototype that is sufficiently powerful to explore the issues facing this new design and analysis methodology. The second part uses this program to evaluate existing performance spaces in order to establish qualitative criteria in a new visual format. Representational issues relating to the visual perception of acoustic spaces are also explored. In the third part, the program is integrated into the design process. I apply this acoustical tool to an actual design situation by remodeling a large performance hall in Medford, Massachusetts. Chevalier Auditorium is a real project, commissioned by the city of Medford, whose program requirements closely match my intentions in scope, scale and nature of a design for exploring this new acoustical analysis and design methodology. Finally, I summarize this program's effectiveness and discuss its potential in more sophisticated future design environments.
