Abstract
Material energies - the variations of temperature, air velocity and light - have inspired designers to innovate beyond tangible forms and surfaces. This thesis develops a process where physiological comfort informs the design of microclimatic experiences at the old Bukit Timah Railway Station. By simulating and evaluating material energies, microclimates with specific energy profiles can be modulated to create material, perceivable boundaries that redefine our conception of space.
