Human being has always been a part of the studio investigation, however in our project human agent will become one of the major influential figures of the system with new extended possibilities to influence and to be influenced. The exploration of architecture as adaptive ecology will open the question about new expansions in interaction between human to machine, human to human and machine to machine and will make a step to a new level of interconnectivity and communication.

    Unfortunately having data from human agents architects are not able to excess the future needs of their clients accurately enough. Accordantly to thatthe system should be addressed to a less transformable in time aspect as environment. As the system players there are three groups of agents: unit_agent, human_agent and environment_agent. Unit_agent is committed to create a space and receive data from human and environment agents. Human_agent has to produce general and current needs for the system either feedback of offered house alteration.Environment_Agent has to create a framework for the system based on data from the nature, urban and social organizations that system is surrounded with.

    The definition and systemization of inner interconnection between groups of agents will be Actor_network_theory (ANT) driven. This approach brings a possibility to create the system of making networks as relationship between human, non-human, material and semiotic. It maps interconnections where subjects and objects are same influential on the system in general.This simple approach brings a larger matrix of relations and of distributed agency. The agent can be both an actor and a network itself. That brings a possibility to bring a certain capacities to specific things, which can be distributed through entire network of material and semiotic, subjects and objects.The main advantage of the actor-network system is that it is capable to exist with incomplete number of actors, therestill will be networks , which are spreading information through the entire system.
