Abstract

Structures which are conceived rationally have an order and logic which do not always fit into real world conditions of the irrational and the unpredictable in architecture. But what if structural ideas were explored as a condition in architecture which challenged the predictable? What if structure were not bound by its rational ethos but instead conceived in alternative approaches relevant to real-world irrationalities? And if the approaches lead to what is possible, then is structural eccentricity a norm or an anomaly in architecture? This book documents a series of design investigations that engage with conditions of shape, change and mutation, giving rise to design propositions dealing with eccentricity in structure. With illustrations and accompanying descriptions of the design process, this book is a useful reference for structural strategies in architecture. Joseph Lim is also the author of Bio-structural Analogues in Architecture. He is with the Department of Architecture, University of Singapore and has a special interest in prototypical structures that challenge the norm in spatial conception.

Abstract

Au cours des dernières décennies, l'amélioration continue de l'efficacité énergétique dans les lampes a engendré la substitution de la lumière naturelle avec la lumière artificielle. La focalisation actuelle pour un plus grand respect de l'environnement, l'efficacité énergétique et le bien-être psychophysique de l'homme nous guide vers une nouvelle conception architecturale, vers une meilleure attention sur le contexte, en encourageant une bonne compréhension de la qualité de la lumière naturelle. Ce manuel vise à sensibiliser les lecteurs sur le principe que la lumière peut être un élément fondateur dans la conception architecturale, capable de modifier positivement l'expérience de l'habitant. Les projets repris dans l'ouvrage proviennent du cours de lumière de la" School of Architecture of the University of Florida" (UF/SoA).

Abstract

During the pandemic, 45 people were invited to take part in a 'serious game': each participant selected the image of a personal object of fascination, out of which a shape was extracted, redrawn, scaled and sent to a CNC machine to be cut out of a 5 mm thick aluminium sheet and become a low table. Each table is here presented through the original image that generated it, the selected contour, a text by its author and photographs of the prototype taken by Maxime Delvaux and printed in silver. Objects of Fascination explores digital technology and craftsmanship through found forms. It can be seen as a collection of personal worldviews by an emerging generation of architects, as much as an attempt to give a physical form to the multiplicity of our collective cultural background. Published in collaboration with Architecture Curating Practice.

Abstract

Until recently, analysis of the future was left to forecasters and trend experts. Today, however, designers and architects are playing an increasingly important role, creating products and environments that will change the way we live. Design Futures is a thought-provoking exploration of the radical directions that the creative industries are taking. Design expert Bradley Quinn reveals how a new generation of products, materials and surfaces will align design with such areas as artificial intelligence, genetic engineering and nanotechnology, reinventing the spaces in which we live and work, and how we experience the human body. Featuring interviews with renowned designers, architects and trend forecasters – among them Karim Rashid, Toyo Ito and Li Edelkoort – and over 250 illustrations of futuristic products and concepts, this is a unique guide to some of the twenty-first century’s most compelling ideas.
