ABSTRACT
This paper introduces KLEDA, a visionary design for a multifunctional public space that seamlessly blends social interaction, sustainability, and innovative materials. Drawing inspiration from nature and bio-inspired architecture—such as the ICD/ITKE Research Pavilion (2016–17)—this project explores the exciting possibilities of memory steel and bioengineered spider silk as future materials. Using Adobe Firefly, an AI-powered generative tool, we developed unique shapes and structural ideas to create a space that harmonizes natural beauty with cutting-edge functionality. The result is a fluid, pavilion-like environment featuring shaded seating, vibrant greenery, and interactive elements—all designed to encourage community engagement while minimizing environmental impact. This work contributes to the discourse on sustainable urban design by proposing adaptable, resilient public spaces made possible through advanced materials and AI-driven creativity.
