Interactive Architecture: Adaptive World illustrates how the infrastructure within and around which we build our daily lives can process information, make observations, and utilize tools in order to translate natural systems and create seamlessly integrated environments. The structures within run the gamut from data-driven light installations, responsive sculptures, and performative materials to smart highways, dynamic spaces, kinetic facades, and adaptive buildings. In reference to their synergetic nature, they are chaptered according to their prevailing intents to "Exhilarate," "Communicate," "Mediate," "Evolve," and "Catalyze."
