The Living Knitwork Pavilion is an interactive textile structure consisting of seamlessly 3D-knitted optically and electrically-active yarns that seamlessly lights up and changes color through the day and night. The functional yarns, intricately embedded within the knitwork, are able to sense touch, proximity, and strain to drive a responsive lighting network and color-change dynamically to reveal hidden cultural-contemporary patterns during sunrise. The pavilion also serves as a communal and gathering place for human-nature-textile interaction, where our presence and environmental changes contribute towards the entire state, glow, breathing, and ambience of the pavilion, amplifying a sense of immersion and connectedness.
