»Intelligent Skin. The 4th Dimension«


«Intelligent Skin»  is a research project of the University of Art and Design Basle HGK, department IN3 for interior design, scenography and object design. Several university and economy partners participate in the team: Façade technology, LED technology, Light Management, Glass technology, architecture, interior design, scenography, arts, philosophy and media studies. »Intelligent Skin« is funded by the Swiss Commission for Innovation and Technology (KTI).

We develop a façade with an own intelligence, as a communicational medium for urban spaces. On the façade it is possible to project images on its outer wall made up of an LED Screen, while maintaining largest possible transparency from inside out. Our emphasis lies on developing scenarios and contexts that exceed the current tendency to use mediafaçades merely for oneway advertisement. We are thinking of a façade which develops a proper individuality over time, due to an own sensory system, intelligence, memory and immune system – a house that organisms, an organism that persons, an organisming personing house that communicates. An oikoborg.
