Flux/ Lux: Modulating Light through Adaptive Reuse

Abstract: How can we produce structural color through generative design to enhance the effects of natural light and refractive materials in urban recycling? This thesis explores how form be assembled to fabricate an ephemeral construction of volume and color. The objective of this research is to develop a system of glass modules that produce an immersive experience of light that transforms our spatial perception of the Trapiche Barnabé in Salvador, Brazil.
