Exploring kinesthetic spatial experiences in the ´active room´

This paper is a very brief summary of a research project which explores, through design and precedent survey, the potential of kinetic architecture to augment our kinesthetic experience of space. The term ´kinetic´ here, refers to mechanical and actual motion of the structure which results to changes and modifications of the shape, form and position of the architecture. This research project regards kinetic architecture to be part of the wider context of interactive architecture and discusses issues of spatial experience through the design of an interactively kinetic room
