2. 1. Utopology : A Re-Interrogation of the Utopian in Architecture

   Author : Fredrik Torisson; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Utopia; Architecture; Networks; Architect; Arboraphobia; Anticipation; Media; Monsters;

   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

4. 2. The Absent Meaning of Concrete Form in Theory of Architecture

   Author : Cecilia Häggström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; body; aesthetic theory; architecture; practical knowledge; artifacts; environmental theory; building function; architectural theory; phenomenology; aesthetic theory;

   Abstract : The aim of this dissertation is to discuss architecture as forming practical conditions for our way-of-being, and to clarify that which prevents traditional theory of architecture from dealing with these practical conditions as such. The dissertation investigates a theoretical problem concerning the nature of the relation between human being and the built environment. READ MORE

5. 3. 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

6. 4. Intra-Representational Practice : An Inquiry into the Conditions for the Possibility of Interdisciplinary Imaginative Collaborative Architectural Modeling in Sustainable Urban Design

   Author : Pehr-Mikael Sällström; Daniel Koch; Helene Frichot; Gunilla Almström Persson; Isabelle Doucet; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Practice epistemology; Architecture; Urban design; Collaborative modeling; Interdisciplinary imagination; Communicative interaction; Representation; Distributed cognition; Intermodal communication; Trans-discourse.; Praktisk kunskap; Arkitektur; Stadsbyggnad; Kollaborativ modellering; Interdisciplinär föreställning; Kommunikativ interaktion; Representation; Distribuerad kognition; Intermodal kommunikation; Trans-diskurs; Arkitektonisk gestaltning; Architectural Design;

   Abstract : A consequence of the concern for a sustainable future is that the number of experts needed to be included in the imaginative stage of architectural modeling is rising. This motivates a better understanding of the conditions for the possibility of transgressive collaborative plural imagination in architectural modeling. READ MORE

7. 5. Generative Design Exploration : Computation and Material Practice

   Author : Mania Aghaei Meibodi; Oliver Tessmann; Jonas Runberger; Neil Leach; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Arkitektur; Architecture;

   Abstract : Today, computation serves as an important intermediary agent for the integration of analyses and the constraints of materialisation into design processes. Research efforts in the field have emphasised digital continuity and conformity between different aspects of a building project. READ MORE
