Students need to be able to customize their own living space to feel more comfortable.
My proposal was to use different furnishing hybrids that would improve the interaction with the space of the environment in order give the inhabitant a sense of belonging, even if they were residing there for a short period of time. Depending on how they were arranged, the structures could give alterations between the feeling of openness and intimacy within small spaces.
These structures are not meant to be considered as finished objects, but as tools for many possible interactions within a living space. At first glance they seem to have a specific function but they have more than one. They can be used in different positions and combinations between them, using different colored metal parts which shift on the wooden stillets and connect them. The objects become part of the interactions between the inhabitants in the space.
