Dynamic dwellings: redefining home through shifting paradigms

Abstract

Dynamic Dwellings highlights the diverse and subjective nature of the concept of home as an evolving entity that exists in a constant state of flux. A dwelling should reflect this ever-changing nature in the form of a dynamic and adaptable structure that has the potential to resonate with the unique identities and evolving needs of each resident. By incorporating flexibility into the foundational architectural design, the work transcends the traditional boundaries of housing and allows the home to expand and contract as life progresses. The integration of this approach provides the opportunity to nurture a profound sense of belonging and foster self-expression. Dynamic Dwellings provides an essential step towards reclaiming the notion of home by demonstrating how residential design can surpass the limits of static and conventional through a structure that can be constructed, shifted, personalized, and deconstructed with ease.
