2. 11. Shaping Social Commitment : Architecture and Intellectuality in the 1970s and ’80s

5. 13. Transcalar Design : biological principles in architecture through computational design and additive fabrication

   Author : Ana Goidea; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; architecture; additive manufacturing 3D printing ; additive manufacturing; biotechnology; Biofabrication; biodesign; generative design;

   Abstract : Architecture is currently facing a period of transformational change which is driven by an increasing awareness of sustainability imperatives combined with technological advancements in the form of digitalisation of design and fabrication processes. These issues both introduce new layers of complexity and necessitate strategies to navigate them. READ MORE

   Abstract : Utopia – the word is simultaneously evocative of hope and dread. As a concept it is stupendously problematic, and yet despite its alleged passing into irrelevance, utopia still remains a household word. Why is this so?Utopia has been reduced to a category. We place a solution in the category of the utopian or, conversely, the not-utopian. READ MORE
