Abstract: This research thesis addresses the growing need for adaptive dynamic interior walls in modern home-schooling design to accommodate the dynamic nature of contemporary lifestyles and enhance living environments. By integrating insights from interior design, architecture, psychology, and engineering, this multidisciplinary study investigates the efficacy of dynamic walls in meeting the evolving needs of inhabitants. The paper begins with a comprehensive literature review, exploring historical precedents, theoretical frameworks, and practical applications relevant to adaptive interior design. Drawing from influential scholars such as Christopher Alexander and Sarah Williams Gold Hagen, the review highlights the psychological, physiological, and sociocultural dimensions of spatial design, emphasizing the pivotal role of adaptability in promoting human well-being and satisfaction in built environments. Building on this theoretical foundation, the study delves into the design development process of dynamic walls, elucidating the intricate interplay between form, function, and technology. Through a detailed exploration of material selection, structural considerations, and responsive design principles, the research illuminates the complexities inherent in creating adaptive architectural elements. Inspirations from innovative projects like the MIT Media Lab's City Home and Ori Systems robotic furniture showcase the transformative potential of dynamic walls in optimizing spatial utilization and enhancing user experience. Furthermore, the study delves into empirical findings derived from surveys, experiments, and user feedback. The collection of robust data and analysis of both quantitative metrics and qualitative responses demonstrate the profound influence of adaptive design solutions on aspects such as spatial flexibility, usability, and overall satisfaction. Concrete evidence of measurable benefits, such as space optimization and improved user experience, is complemented by nuanced perspectives from qualitative feedback, shedding light on user interactions. The versatility and scalability of dynamic walls are underscored through the inclusion of real-world case studies across diverse settings. These case studies provide tangible proof of concept, showcasing successful implementations in commercial spaces, educational environments, This research paper offers a compelling argument for the transformative potential of dynamic walls as an effective design solution. By synthesizing theoretical insights, design principles, and empirical evidence, it contributes to the discourse on adaptive interior design and provides practical guidance for architects, designers, and stakeholders seeking to enhance spatial functionality and user experience.
