Weed 2 - Possible Topics for the Term Project

3D building printer:

No more box shape buildings
Right angle has been the most efficient way to hold the structures up. In order to create high rising building, that might be the most efficient way, however, not everyone wants or can afford high rising buildings. People want their own type of buildings based on the purpose and style. If 3D building printer can create buildings that's cheap, affordable, and artistic building that clients want, that would be the evolution of construction.

Transformable Structure:

Smart buildings
What if a building can respond to certain external and internal changes like human can do? What if a building can change its shape based on the load, temperature, and many different factors that could effect human comfort. These abilities of buildings can create many amazing view into and out of the building and even save energy. In addition to that by applying many different technology, building can heal it self for renovations to extend building life cycle.

Please contact me if you are interested in my idea.
