dc.description.abstractThis design research project is an investigation into the creation of dynamic spaces using form as a mode of exploration. It stems from a personal interest in theories such as hybridity and mimesis; and how these theories can be applied in architecture to create unique and dynamic spatial conditions. The title, Interspace [Inter - play - ce], is derived from the idea of the spatialization of interfaces between forms and programmes (although I have limited this investigation to different forms); that is, an interface becomes an Interspace. This research document is subdivided into five chapters: (I) an introductory chapter describing the design proposition and site selection through a programmatic narrative; (II) the theoretical framework of the project; (Ill) a critical response to the theory as it relates to the architectural design; (IV) the methodology in locating and critically analyzing the site, and its subsequent design process; and finally, (V) some concluding remarks. This document intends to be an evaluation of the theoretical position and its translation through design. It is by no means a step-by-step guide to creating dynamic spatial conditions (Interspace); but rather a critical analysis of my methodology, highlighting potential flaws and strengths.en_ZA
