2. 1. 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

4. 2. Taming the Erratic : Representation and materialization in post-digital architectural design

   Author : Daniel Norell; Timothy Anstey; Ulrika Karlsson; Fredrik Nilsson; Claus Peder Pedersen; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Representation; Materialization; Post-digital; Material simulation; Chunk; Arkitektur; Architecture;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates materialization and representation in contemporary architectural design practice. Due to cultural and technological shifts, the act of design is no longer squarely located in the abstract realms of drawings or digital geometries. READ MORE

5. 3. Architectural Flirtations : A Love Storey

   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; architectural flirtations; architectural pedagogy; queer feminist theory; architectural critique; Camp; design practice research; performativity; experimental writing practices; critical fiction; critical architectural theory; Aldo Rossi; ‘significant otherness’; Arkitektur; Architecture;

   Abstract : Formulated as a feminist project, written as a pulp fiction, Architectural Flirtations: A Love Storey begins with our claim that the architectural discipline is centered around a culture of critique, which is based in what bell hooks calls “a system of imperialist, white supremacist, heterosexist, capitalist, patriarchy,” and that the values instilled by this culture not only begin with, but are reinforced and reproduced by, the education of young architects.Sounds serious.

6. 4. Designing for Extremes

   Author : Olga Bannova; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Architect; Human Factors; Engineering; Engineer; Multidisciplinary and Trans-disciplinary Design and Planning.; Extreme environments; Architecture; Design Planning;

   Abstract : The starting point of this research is based on personal experience in research and design for extreme environments, including orbital and lunar planetary facilities, disaster shelters, polar stations and offshore surface and submersible habitats. This work reflects on related to research problem technical papers, discussions with professionals about their work experience with projects in extreme conditions, and students' workshops debating strategies to form sustainable behavior and design practices.

7. 5. Uncommon Ground : Urban Form and Social Territory

   Author : Eva Minoura; Daniel Koch; Meta Berghauser Pont; Alexander Ståhle; Stephen Marshall; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; territoriality; interface; social sustainability; morphology; commons; stewardship; open space; yards; spatial analysis; Architecture; Arkitektur;

   Abstract : Implicit in any urban design is a negotiation between public and private interests. Such a negotiation is articulated and made legible in the facades, fences and even more subtle edges separating this from that. A complex variety of spatial situations are produced depending on how spaces are framed, how interfaces are materialized. READ MORE
