Interactive Architecture explorers emerging practices within architecture and wider trans-disciplinary fields that forge digital technologies & virtual spaces with tangible and physical spatial experiences. Instead of defining a fixed architectural product, an interactive architecture is in constant flux, best suited often to prototyping and semi-permanent installations. This site takes a wide ranging look at the designers and technologies providing exciting opportunities for extending the design of our built environment. It is maintained by Ruairi Glynn.

Ruairi Glynn

Working between the fields of architecture and digital media, I build reactive and interactive installations exploring the use of responsive technologies in the design of engaging, tangible and spatial experiences. Trained as an architect, following an earlier education and career in interaction design, I currently split my practice between production of public art installations and teaching. I am a diploma thesis tutor at the Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London and a design tutor at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, University of Arts London on the MA Textile Futures and MA Industrial Design programmes.
