Contextual architectural design

Today, architectural designers primarily rely upon computer-aided design (CAD) tools to model proposals for new architectural interventions on a given site. However, these drawings can be highly abstracted from the real-world conditions in which their designs will be actualized, and it can be challenging to conceptualize the relationship between their 3D model and the surrounding environment. This collection of mini-projects explored ways to more interactively visualize architectural designs in situ, defining interaction here not as an interplay between user and device, but between design proposal and existing site.
