Hitobito

Hitobito is a lighting installation created for a lantern festival held in Taipei City in 2023. The structure is inspired by the Chinese character for person, formed by two members that support each other. Two narrow entrances lead visitors inside, where the paths merge into one larger space. A projector at the center casts a motion graphic onto the floor. A manually bent steel pipe frame is painted white and clad with woven bamboo dowels of one centimeter width. The installation measures 9.8 meters wide, 7.8 meters deep and 3.5 meters high.

Sounds of Welser

Welser Profile is a global provider of steel profiles. The company was looking for an interactive brand experience for its visitor center.

Therefore it made perfect sense for Responsive Spaces to build upon the very core of this success story and let the product be the hero. Real client products were used to build a steel organ, which aesthetically hints towards tradition and reacts to every human touch by offering a glimpse of the underlying magic through the creation of mystical soundscapes.

The Book That Grew

The Book That Grew is a grazing guide created for farmers in Ireland. The book presents 10 lessons and 10 pieces of practical advice that help improve sustainability on farms. Each page, each word and each diagram was formed by real grass roots as they grew. The roots were guided over several weeks by a combination of gardening and careful craft, so the printing process was completed by nature. Complex farming processes are explained through a set of bespoke symbols, and a fold-out page lets the reader check the symbol key while reading. Closed, the book measures 29.7 by 42 centimeters.

Venous

Venous Materials is a soft interactive material that displays dynamic patterns in response to touch. The design is inspired by vein structures found in plants, leaves and the human body. Fluid moves through internal channels when pressure or deformation is applied, creating visible changes of color and pattern. Each sheet works as both a sensor and a display of tangible information. The material is made of PDMS silicone and ecoline ink, using laser engraving and manual laboratory processes. Prototypes measure from 5 by 5 centimeters to 15 by 15 centimeters.

Infusion Dosing System

Silicon

Silicon is a semi automatic infusion dosing system that controls the flow rate and the duration of intravenous medication. A mechanical timer and a flow rate valve are placed above and below the infusion tube, so medical staff can set the required drip rate and time without mental calculation. When the dose is complete, the valve switches to a physiological saline mode and the injection continues, which reduces the risk of errors during busy periods. Silicon needs no electricity and can therefore serve areas with limited medical resources.
