In the modern era, formal and static spaces were mainstream for rational and efficient space utilization, and thus a series of rules that pursued modernist unity and stability were emphasized. Contemporary architectural and spatial concepts attempt to break away from these fixed systems and transform the space itself into a freeform and dynamic space with vitality, thereby creating relatively complex and pluralistic spatial configurations. The changing aspect of dynamic space in contemporary times is a four-dimensional space with time added to the three-dimensional space concept, proving that space is a dynamic entity that exists in time. In other words, it must continuously change by the collective of spatial elements formed within the space and users who enjoy the space.
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to suggest creative possibilities and directions for new dynamic spaces by examining the meaning and current limitations of design studies for producing dynamic effects in space through theoretical review and case studies on the essential concept of dynamism and actual creation of works.
After examining various literature reviews and examining cases of design definitions and processes, it was found that there have been various paradigms for expressing dynamism, but most of them tend to focus only on superficial changes in appearance through metaphorical substitution of language, and since space still exists in a fixed form, there was a limitation that space users had to passively adapt. Moreover, fixed-form spaces do not adapt to changes in the surrounding environment, and interest in dynamic appearances does not last long, so they get out of the adaptability, relationships, fluidity, and activity required from a design perspective.
To overcome these limitations, there is a creative possibility that space itself can create flexible spatial configurations according to its purpose by recognizing external factors such as environmental, human, and geographical factors with a dynamic mechanism to evolve. This places greater emphasis on the organic interrelationship between elements such as users, space, and the surrounding environment according to movement in time and location, and breaks away from the existing hierarchical separation that passively uses space.
The concept of link space has spatial characteristics corresponding to the stream and context of times of the concept of dynamism. The link space basically emphasizes interaction with various relationships such as connectivity, continuous interaction, or fluidity, and active vitality. This concept goes beyond physical connectivity to hyper-connectivity and extends to the non-material concept of the virtual world, which is meaningful in establishing the direction of dynamic space design more specifically by extending the formal realization and system operation method.
This study tries to redefine dynamic link space by connecting the concept of dynamism and the concept of link space. As a result of simultaneously understanding the dynamic space trends and technological flows that have been attempted so far, it was possible to derive the possibility that the conceptual movements of the time of dynamism can be overcome with new technologies such as digital twins and utilized for intelligent space strategies. It tries to complete the conditions for establishing specific design configuration based on a comprehensive concept including the coexistence of visibility and invisibility, the deconstruction of the temporality of three-dimensional space, the uncertainty of separated space, de-boundary and de-territoriality, and infinite adaptation and evolutionary creativity of creatures.
In this research, it conducted a study on various types of basic configurations using Rhino3D and Grasshopper programs optimized for realizing dynamic mechanism methods. Starting with ‘Cellular Automata’, one of the clustering algorithms, it mathematically extracted and organized the relationship between individual cells and surrounding cells, and built the movement path of each employee’s unit space and the overall space structure through 3D work. And the detailed design such as unit space structure, movement sections, and other community spaces, was carried out to complete the final work.
To concretize this, the configurations were simulated in the office space using a rendering program such as Twinmotion. And a scenario for virtual company information was created to be applied to physical configuration and virtual system strategy. Lastly, it visualized the exchange of information between physical and virtual spaces using the ‘Reality Composer’ AR tool when actual work-related project changes.
In this study, it pointed out the limitations of borrowing only the fixed form and dynamic appearance of space, and as an alternative, it suggested a creative design that the spatial configuration should be continuously adapted and changed along with spatiotemporal changes by bringing the space itself to life. It was also confirmed through the work that it has value for application to actual spaces in the future as an example of diverse, fluid, and creative space design.
