Dostępność: na zamówienie Architectural Geometry is the first book to introduce a revolutionary new approach to design. Geometry lies at the core of the architectural design process. It is omnipresent, from the initial form-finding stages to the actual construction. Modern constructive geometry provides a variety of tools for the efficient design, analysis, and manufacture of complex shapes. This results in new challenges for architecture. However, the architectural application also poses new problems to geometry. Architectural geometry is therefore an entire research area, currently emerging at the border between applied geometry and architecture.

Dostępność: na zamówienie New computer and digital fabrication tools are driving architectural designs to push the boundaries of form, customization, and construction. Driven by practices wanting and needing to produce novelty, computer-aided design systems are becoming increasingly parametric -- they represent designs that change with their input data. These systems give more control and capability to designers, but require much more comprehensive understanding if they are to be used effectively.
