More about the book

The book explores the evolution of irregularly shaped building designs, known as Free Form or Blob architecture, which gained traction with the advent of user-friendly computerized design tools in the 1990s. It highlights the gap between innovative architectural concepts and traditional engineering practices, emphasizing the need for a shift in structural design approaches. The study presents a solution through systematically generated components and parametric modeling, allowing for greater design freedom while adhering to rational fabrication standards, thus enhancing the structural integrity of free form buildings.
