Computer-aided design and digital simulation have led to new forms as well as to an increasingly strategic approach to architecture and urban development. From the preliminary sketch all the way to the production of building components, digital tools offer new possibilities that were still inconceivable just a few years ago. These new possibilities raise also numerous questions regarding the challenges that await the architectural discipline; The book provides a profound introduction to the important role of digital technologies in architectural design and related fields. In four chapters the author systematically examines the influence of digital culture on architecture but also on the urban landscape; Includes bibliographical references and index; I.People, computers and architecture : Ahistorical overview -- II.Experiments in form and performance -- III.From tectonic to ornament: Towards a different materiality -- IV.The city in the digital sprawl -- V.Conclusion ER -
