My project explores the connection of steam punk, a subgenre of science fiction, and architecture. My key focus is to point out the issues technology can cause to our society in terms of being lackadaisical, and losing touch with their natural human form to technology. I explore the upward drive to a more technology filled home, one where the owners have to do little to no work to get what they want. My thesis: is the society becoming too dependent on technology? If so how can the combination of steampunk and architectural design stop this? Steam punk inventions and architectural designs are large, elaborate masses composed of tiny part. when we combine the two we get homes, a crucial part of living, that we can relate too, feel, and be in control of in a manual way. With this, society can separate themselves from machines, and not become consumed.
