FluxSight is a design tool in augmented reality that helps architects and designers to create objects in a wide variety of scales using reclaimed resources. This process explores freeform modelling from hand tracking and gesture detection in the early design stage, taking into account resources availability and combining it with performance criteria like solar radiation. The main objective of this tool is to promote and create awareness of the importance of material reusability, potentially reducing the environmental and economical impact of our constructed environment.
This proposal for Kakuma is based on security and privacy in terms of planning, density, materiality, view and question of the sharp distinction between public and private space.
