In the USA the generation of 30-40 year old architects has a number of remarkable achievements to show for itself. Although this generation encompasses a broad spectrum of architectural genres, it is clear that there is one common factor which differentiates them from the previous generation: they were literally born with the computer. This book reports on how this new tool has influenced and affected the quality of designing, looking at the most interesting protagonists of the electronic generation together with their most important projects. The authors live in New York and are themselves active in this field

This book was released on 2003. Hyperbodies available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Hyperbodies are buildings and environments which can continuously change shape and content. The mutations of such buildings depend on the input coming from their user as well as from the surroundings. This interaction between user and building is determined by a data flow which the hyperbody uses and converts into a "hypersurface" structure, which then alters our perception of space in and around the hyperbody. The architect programs this interaction and can thereby define the specific character of the building. In this book, the author provides a concise overview of this latest digital tool. Kaas Oosterhuis is Professor at the Technical University Delft and is a well-known Dutch architect.

Download and read online ebook The Architecture of Intelligence write by Derrick De Kerckhove. This book was released on 2001. The Architecture of Intelligence available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. A refreshingly unconventional look at architecture and the World Wide Web. Using Vitruvius' classical text De Arquitectura as a starting point, De Kerckhove begins a journey into the exciting world of the Internet. On the one hand he explores the architecture of this revolutionary medium, on the other, he considers the wide-ranging opportunities which the IT world offers for architectonic design, revealing how this new medium for communication is as much based on tradition as on innovation. Derrick de Kerckhove is the Director of the McLuhan Institute and Professor at the University of Toronto. His research into the effects of innovative technology on human communication, of new media on traditional culture have gained worldwide recognition.

This book was released on 2000-08-01. New Flatness available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In recent architecture theory and practise there has been a tendency to refer to exteriors as a skin concealing an interior, as opposed to the traditional and more physical concepts of surface, flatness, and depth. The computer now enables the architect to call his design into life, free from the rigid material form, and view it as a flexible and interactive creation. In this book, the concepts of flatness and surface tension are examined in the light of virtual design and built reality. A selection of projects are presented to show how the architects regard space and surfaces in modern architectural practice in a digital age.
