Introductionlivingphorm is a space dedicated to Shin's advanced architectural studies and research in redefining architecture in this chaotic age. Topics that stimulate Shin are the complex relationship between human/man made creation and the mother nature, the connections between new invention/ conceptual technology and biotech. The study perceives nature as a core for all design principles. Homo-sapiens that live within the nature should not disobey the complexity system therefore architecture which is one of the man-made products that consuming large amount of spaces and resources on planet Earth should be humbled to the nature rules and constraints. The approach is to unlearn from proven failures and redefine architecture in the shifting paradigm in Anthropocene Age and researching on methodologies of 'growing' architecture instead of 'building' architecture which is leading human race to a Dystopia in near future.
