A Dynamic Architecture is flexible and determined by its environment, adapting to needs of
its users, to changing conditions of its physical surrounding and to informational input.
An example of Dynamic Architecture is the design of a BMW IAA Pavilion for the Frankfurt
International Automobile Fair 1997 with ABB Architekten Scheid Schmidt und Partner
Frankfurt. The two conditions of a car are driving and parking. As the expression
auto.mobile already implies self.movement is its real determination. Motorshows can only
display the less interesting static condition. Referring to this problem the design study
for a BMW Pavilion transfers movement into architecture. Since neither the cars nor the
building were allowed to be mobile, the movement of the spectators is used to give the
sensation of driving. In the BMW IAA Pavilion the dynamics generate form with the help of
special effects software. With this strategy the architect is leaving behind the concept
of architecture as the design of the outer shape of things. Form finds its way into being.
Il video presenta il progetto per il padiglione BMW IAA per il Salone Internazionale
dell'automobile del 1997 quale esempio di Architettura Dinamica, utilizzata in risposta
alla necessità di far percepire all'osservatore le caratteristiche di movimento delle
automobili. Non essendo possibile far muovere le auto o gli edifici il movimento degli
spettatori, unitamente ad appositi software, viene utilizzato per dare la sensazione della
guida. |
