Reconstructing What is Made, Through Displacement of the Found.

Undergraduate Thesis work completed by Casey Stamm at The Ball State College of Architecture and Planning.
This work provides a reconditioned approach to design when addressing architecture that instances itself within the natural environment. The design methodology primarily focuses on the use of contemporary technologies and digital techniques to help create hybrid designs that blend features of the natural environment with man-made structures.
The current conditions in which these design approaches can be allocated are distributed to the areas of: Siu Lam, Hong Kong; North Rim, Arizona; Denali, Alaska; and Chernobyl, Ukraine. The specifics of each chosen site vary, but all still primarily involve the future outlook of having damaged and reduced ecologies, due to the increase in demand for residential housing.
As a way to establish how designers can start to curate these buildings that are then more enmeshed with their environment, rather than invasive and territorial, the project suggests that not only should the materiality of our designs be derived from their natural context, but also so should the formal and spatial qualities of the architecture itself. In order to do this, the project methodology explores today’s photogrammetry processes, a series of neural network-based algorithms, and digital sculpting workflows.
