In Solaris, as well as most science fiction, the interior architecture of space ships or interplanetary habitats is usually very cold and unaccommodating. Is this correlated to the negative psychological effects of space travel exhibited in the characters (loneliness, anxiety, paranoia, loss of identity, etc.)? Will a more humanized architecture help ease the transition into unfamiliar habitats? What qualities and methods of design would […]

This artist finds random DNA in different places and is able to recreate peoples faces based on their DNA.
The idea of relevance is always in architecture but the aspects of what is relevant at the time changes constantly. Is there a way to design something that will adapt to the people and keep changing with the times to allow the design to never become irrelevant? Most places become abandonded because they served out […]
How has our environment evolved and have we evolved appropriately to survive in it? The Island and The Things both comment on how humans poorly adapted to our various environments. We are constantly unaware of the limitations of protocols that we don’t pay attention to and how they affect us. ex. gravity. How can we control our own evolution […]

I’m having a hard time narrowing down my interests to decide which to develop further… I was hoping you could point me in the right direction as to which categories are worth further exploration.
