Building materials which responds to the DNA of the occupant, modifying themselves according to their unique preferences. These materials know the precise temperature and humidity level that maximizes individual comfort, optimum light levels, favorite colors, smells, sounds, etc.
The system is comprised of only two architectural surfaces: the ceiling plane and the floor plane. Translucent latex rubber is stretched taut over a robotic "animator" subsurface, manipulated to precisely meet the needs of various domestic functions, be it dining, recreation, bathing, procreation or sleep.
