| summary |
This paper describes research work that reenacts the interactive planning system YONA (Your Own Native Architect) designed in the early 1970s by the architect Yona Friedman, together with Nicolas Negroponte and Guy Weinzapfel at the MIT Architecture Machine Group (AMG). The attempts to give users a measure of control over dwellings was seen a democratizing factor and a way forward for solving housing shortage and rigid planning process. We engaged in a close collaboration with Yona Friedman and Guy Weizanpfel to reenact the original YONA system. Our objective was to rebuild the program and adapt it to current operating systems. |
