Material Investigations

I conducted several interventions to understand how different materials and textures affect the way I use and interact with objects and surfaces in my home. The grid of my floor plan represents the areas of intervention, objects of affordances, inside/outside boundaries, and material junctions. I started to unpack what different materials and objects afford, while discovering whether they start to govern interrelationships and activity. I found that my level of comfort and efficiency is directly related to how comfy and soft a material is.

Material Interventions

Intervening the everyday objects and surfaces in my home to observe the changes in my activity and how I interact with it. Diagramming these changes to better understand how and why these changes in materiality start to affect their use and affordances. Showing human trace, disrupting routines, and understanding how shifting materials can increase comfort and efficiency, or have the opposite effect.
