Design Thesis

Abinaya Sivaprakasam Thamilarasan

Hi! I’m an interior architect and designer. I strive to create thoughtful, curated experiences through a blend of craft, design thinking and imagination.

Project Themes

Design Research, Speculative design,
Interior Architecture, Adaptive Reuse

Speculative design visualization

Expanded timeline, Research phases

Architecture of the past was regarded as a concrete entity, both in its materiality and approach, unresponsive to change within a city. Climatic and societal shifts greatly impact cities ill-prepared to adjust. How can the intractable architecture of the past become flexible?

Set within the conceptual thesis track, the design explores what role adaptive reuse can play to add value to society? How could it think of urban forces at play, and think about the room currently lacking for nature.
