Abstract

Ice Cycle House demonstrates an alternative strategy for harvesting natural resources and redistributing them as variable arrays of performative effects. It does so by redesigning two ubiquitous accessory building components - a domestic roof drain and roof vent - into an integrated, adaptive building envelope. No longer constrained as mono-functioning accessories, drainage and ventilation are instead deployed across the envelope's surfaces as an interdependent, dynamic system. © 2010 ACSA.
