Space is composed of multiple layers, including transportation, working, living, and the presence of every individual. The project Fluid Spaces serves as an architectural response to these dynamic interactions. This innovative project creates adaptable spaces within self-optimizable fluid expanded in a 3D magnetic field, evaluated across all these layers.

The real-time adaptability of Fluid Spaces is powered by advanced technologies such as magnetic field control and fluid mechanics. Layers of temperature, light, sound, and density are seamlessly integrated, creating a dynamic matrix that reshapes space based on human interaction and environmental factors.

Developed by visionary architects Hoda Ghoreyshi, Vahid Khabazan, Soroush Attarzade, and Surush Ameli, Fluid Spaces embodies the future of responsive architecture. This groundbreaking design was a shortlisted entry in Hybrid Futures '19 - Work x Fly, a competition showcasing cutting-edge concepts for the next generation of living and working spaces.
