IDEA 1
I intend to redesign how people occupy and experience spaces. This would affect the space and energy efficiency of a building. From this my aim is for a means to change the social behaviour of users within a building. The reason why I would like to explore this idea is that it has the potential to change the way users occupy and interact with buildings. We can apply this idea by using a few technologies such as sensors and programming that will calculate and return data for which spaces are suitable and available for the user. Another form of technology that can be applied (and linked to programming) is the use of online social media that will help determine the ‘networking’ of users (such as students). The idea of networking is to group certain people together which will help them connect to other ‘similar’ people they would not usually collaborate with. This is significant because it will trigger a change in the way people operate and interact within a space or building. It may be able to change social behavioural trends as well as encourage effective collaboration between ‘like-minded’ designers in the FBE.

IDEA 2
I aim to create a new outlook in how people are able to better use unused spaces. This will help the way in how people be aware of other unused spaces and in situations where one space is fully occupied, the ‘users’ are able to locate the nearest available space to occupy. This will help equalize the density of people within an area. We can achieve this idea by the use of either mobile online applications which can ‘check-in’ and map people in an area or the use of sensor technology which will provide data (by mapping) to facilities management, students or planners which will help them better manage the total area. This could also have the potential to provide online real time data to the audience. This is significant because it will provide efficiency in how spaces are occupied within an area or building.
IDEA 3
I want to rethink the way in how space is created. By exploring digital space such as wireless internet and the area (hotspots) it creates, we can ‘see’ how digital space is created and its relationship with the physical space. By undergoing this research, we are able to better instigate which areas have the best internet connection points, as well as being able to map out or make it visible to the audience. By understanding the nature in how wireless internet works and their interaction with physical objects (such as walls) we are able to examine the kind of spaces that result from this digital activity. This is significant because it will be able to help make ‘invisible’ digital spaces visible for users.
