Includes bibliographical references (p. 59-60).
Sites and programs are in constant flux and are affected by environmental, social, and economic forces they encounter. This thesis explores the ways kinetic architecture mediates between the site and programs in flux. Programmatic flux requires the architecture to adapt through overlapping and transformable space while responding to the forces on the site through an understanding of their paths and boundaries. Kinetic spaces are carefully programmed to allow for flexibility over time but are also conscious in preventing under-programmed or unprogrammed space. Site and program interact through the exchange of social and environmental forces that impact each other simultaneously. The forces on the site will not only affect the architecture but the architecture will have an important impact on the reconstructed site and its environment.

<Abstract>Sites and programs are in constant flux and are affected by environmental, social, and economic forces they encounter. This thesis explores the ways kinetic architecture mediates between the site and programs in flux. Programmatic flux requires the architecture to adapt through overlapping and transformable space while responding to the forces on the site through an understanding of their paths and boundaries. Kinetic spaces are carefully programmed to allow for flexibility over time but are also conscious in preventing under-programmed or unprogrammed space. Site and program interact through the exchange of social and environmental forces that impact each other simultaneously. The forces on the site will not only affect the architecture but the architecture will have an important impact on the reconstructed site and its environment.</Abstract>
