Today, developing technology and globalization change the cultures, lifestyles, and needs of societies. This change also impacts the expectations from architectural spaces. Spaces designed to perform a predetermined function may be insufficient to meet the changing needs over time. The aim of this study is to show the flexibility that the movable structural elements bring to the space. In this context, we propose integrating movable inner and outer shell structural elements to achieve specific functionality and meet the various functional capacity needs. In this study, a sample design was visualized to demonstrate the use of integrated kinetic building elements and was discussed its applicability with existing technologies and the advantages that it can provide. As a result, it was observed that kinetic building elements practically provide spatial flexibility and functional diversity in architectural design. In addition, the visuals show that the system is practical, applicable and efficient. Kinetic and flexible space design can be evaluated in “Generative and Parametric design” by means of to obtain variable solutions and functional sustainability according to different functional expectations from design.
