The Exo-Frame : Integrating a User Experience

Desai Sarthak Bhargavbhai

AR2047

The project was to choose certain properties from objects and to use them to create collages and hybrid models and then further take these qualities into a “Host-Parasite” object that emphasizes these qualities using a host that is the main body and a parasite that has infested the body using these qualities. Then scale these models to one of the three sites and to visualize them as an architectural structure and integrate the properties into your design in different ways like structure, ornamentation, furniture and other details.
