This book offers an alternative vision for the future of architecture, a timely and invaluable contribution to the debate concerning emergent surfaces and the next generation of building membranes in this era of extreme computational control.

Areas covered include:

  • the future relationship between structure and ornament
  • the value of mass customization for the next generation of modular building components
  • the role of smart materials in creating a sustainable universe.

Critical essays are combined with cutting-edge work to form an inspiring manual of varied digital and analog techniques.
