Body Architecture
From wearable artifacts to radical body futures
Body Architecture is a research-led exploration by NIA Studio that applies computational and parametric design principles to the scale of the human body. Using algorithmic workflows and advanced 3D printing technologies, the project investigates adaptive, data-driven structures that respond to anatomy, movement, and sensory interaction.
The research spans functional design as wearable artifacts to conceptual proposals that radically reimagine the human form, positioning the body as both site and generator. Situated between architecture, digital fabrication, and wearable systems, Body Architecture extends architectural thinking beyond buildings into intimate, speculative, and responsive design territories.
