Research's IaaC - Rotatable House

Rotatable House

This project tries to find some real self-sufficient ways to create a house that is not the compromise one in the aspect of self-sufficiency. The idea of this project is mainly from the traditional Chinese agriculture which name is the mode of paddy field with the mulberry trees. With the studying of this mode plus the methane, I find several benign cycles of self-sufficient house that meet the modern life’s requirement. From this basement, I develop this rotatable house. It should be acclimatization house. And the houses can communicate easily by the rotating of themselves in the neighborhood that make up of this kind house. It can show some figure ground characters from the process of the rotating. At last the digital fabric to show the form of this house model also is an interesting thing. By Zhao Honghao
