 +The basic house is an habitable volume; foldable, inflatable and reversible. "I came up with an almost immaterial house that self inflates with body heat or from the heat of the sun; so simple and versatile that it protects us from the cold and from the heat when reversed; so light that it floats; and moreover, it folds up and fits into your pocket. Ideal for a life on the move without material ties. Having everything without having almost anything."

 +Aiko Kubo's thesis project at Konstfack, 2012.Investigation into a changeable character of space or air around human body. I made an architectural sculpture with textiles like a soft wall, which flutters, inflates, spins and flips by the wind from fan systems. It begun by researching how the room (=bubbles) that works as one’s territory is melted in our living environments today.

-The dam, which would be located over a gorge at Lake Lagoda in north-west Russia, includes a cup-shaped spinnaker sail, believed to be the first of its kind, which will generate renewable energy by funnelling the wind through an attached turbine. +
-The spinnaker shape is similar to the mainsail of a yacht, and is thought to be particularly effective in capturing wind. +
-Project architect Laurie Chetwood, said that the shape of the sail was influenced by functionality and a desire to produce something “sculptural”. +
-He added: “The sail looks like a bird dipping its beak into the water, which will be much less of a blot on this beautiful and unblemished landscape. +
-“But it is also highly effective at capturing the wind because it replicates the work of a dam and doesn’t let the wind escape in the way it does using traditional propellers.” +
-If granted planning, the dam will be 25m high and boast a 75m span when it goes on site next year. The practice is also looking at applying for planning permission for a similar scheme at another gorge, further up the valley.\\ +
