Thought I'd probably get this draft out of the way to make room for my next.
(Which would be sometime tonight also)
For the past few days I've been doing a bit of research and came across some..
"intriguing" ideas..
I've also manage to come across a website that has a collection of
What intrigues me the most from site is the Super Cillia Skin

Moreover, here are some other intriguing elements that could be incorporated into the facade.
The following two uses Electoactive polymer (EAP)
[skip to 1:50 for demonstration]
On the Simpler side things..
A folding shading device
and..an Awning Window that uses the same idea.
Although these devices maybe simple, I believe they have further potential to be a "spectacle" on the Vegas scale.And Even more simple...

(.I misplaced the photo...will link it back lateR)
some other conventional kinetic facades (or at least i think its kinetic)
After all the research..
I realized I had to take a step back and look at the bigger picture.
There are too many intriguing spectacle elements that I would hope/like to incorporate into the designing of my final facade.
However, in the end, it all boils down to what I seek to design or achieve in my facade.
I want the Buildings facade to be a place where the idea of "culinary arts" is display...(Chef at work) Where the building is the Chef's stage and the facade the curtains.
Essentially, my facade will seek to achieve the following ideas.
OPEN & CLOSE
PUBLIC & PRIVATE
SPECTACLE
I'll expand on these a little later.
