Home is…? It is a simple question that can be answered within a second, but there are many factors that influence and complicate the way we answer. A home may be a space for living in a straightforward sense; however, “home” may also refer to the feelings, the people, the objects, or the different versions of ourselves that we feel comfortable with in a more private setting. Home Is… shows the perspective of a gardener whose regular activities and personalities outside the home are brought back inside and reinterpreted as part of a newly adapted lifestyle.

IoT Garden
Advanced Info Service (AIS) established the AIS Design Centre (AIS D.C.) as a new venture to welcome startups and anyone interested in design and creative endeavors. At the entry of AIS D.C., an open area is available for the public to view services and information collected via Internet of Things (IoT) devices connected through the AIS network such as weather, humidity, traffic, etc. AIS sought to explore an experimental installation that could visualize or make tangible some of this digital data while providing some on-site interaction that would encourage physical engagement. This interactive experience would be a pilot project that could possibly be duplicated or expanded upon to include additional kinds of information or other locations in the near future. Students worked closely with the AIS IoT team and the project assistants to design and construct an interactive installation as a standalone object at the entry hall area of AIS D.C. The resulting design visualized environmental data including PM2.5, humidity, and noise from twelve districts within Bangkok through a network of digital flowers in a garden.

INDA Lab at Samyan
As part of INDA’s occupation of its building in Samyan, we wish to involve students in the development of the existing facilities at the satellite faculty to substantiate Samyan as a maker space and a formidable resource for design production and exhibition at INDA. The project for the INDA Lab includes the renovation of old and new workrooms, the procurement, production, installation, and storage of tools, and the creation of a training program and new exhibition facilities.
