Auxiliary Architectures: Augmenting Existing Architectures with Performative Capacities
Auxiliary architectures are a feature of many local building traditions across the world. Sited adjacent to existing structures, they are most often built as a means of tempering the climate, frequently offering additional shade in the summer months. Here Guest‐Editor Michael Hensel proposes the development of auxiliary architectures as a solution to retrofitting and readapting existing building stock as climate conditions globally become increasingly unpredictable. He showcases the research that he has undertaken in the field in collaboration with the OCEAN Design Research Association, Scarcity and Creativity Studio (SCL) and Extended Threshold Studio.
