Selected readings in digital design and manufacturing
Robert Corser, editor.
- 1st ed.
- New York : Princeton Architectural Press, [2010]
- 216 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm
Includes bibliographical references.
Rereadings : looking back at recent discourse in emerging technologies / Robert Corser -- Instrumental geometry / Achim Menges -- Using building information modeling for performance-based design / Eddy Krygiel -- Innovate or perish : new technologies and architecture's future / David Celento -- CAD/CAM in the business of architecture, engineering, and construction / André Chaszar and James Glymph -- Complexity and customization : the Porter House Condominium-ShoP Architects / Amanda Reeser Lawrence -- Remaking in a postprocessed culture / William Massie -- Engineering of freeform architecture / Harald Kloft -- Mass customization and the manufacture module / James Woudhuysen with Stephen Kieran and James Timberlake -- Self-organization and material constructions / Michael Weinstock -- Automation takes command : the nonstandard, unautomatic history of standardization and automation in architecture / Kiel Moe -- On shells and blobs : structural surfaces in the digital age / Martin Bechthold -- Diminishing difficulty : mass customaiztion and the digital production of architecture / Dan Willis and Todd Woodward.
"With the increasing speed and power of personal computers and the decreasing cost of specialized tools like building information and engineering analysis software, laser cutters and CNC routers, architects have a growing toolkit of digital design and manufacturing resources at their disposal. But can the availability of new technologies really be expected to bring about a true revolution in the field of architecture? Fabricating Architecture addresses the broad range of issues that grow out of these emerging technological innovations. Gathered together for the first time are twelve key essays by important critics, theorists, and architects on this timely and essential topic." -- Back cover.
