summary |
Architecture is currently facing a phygital era that requires a re-consideration and re-assembly of traditional methods of design and construction. From digital twins to metaverse, a series of technological trends have projected the futures of architectural production and inhabitation within a mixed reality.
To propose new methodologies and new tools within the architectural ontology of the phygital future, we need to fundamentally rethink the boundary between the virtual and the physical. What is the future of the relationship between physical space and virtual intelligent technologies? Will they coexist in parallel, or will they integrate and synergize together?
To meet the challenges of the current existential crisis, we also need to fundamentally rethink the relationship between architecture, nature, and human society in this phygital era. Is there a way in which the phygital nature of architectural production and inhabitation could provide a conceptually new model of human inhabitation as opposed to merely offering more engineering solutions?
Phygital Intelligence intends to promote a series of scholarly dialogues on these technological, social, and ecological transformations in architecture. The key objective is to define the term "phygital" and to investigate the role of phygital intelligence in architectural production in all the transcended territories of the virtual and the real, the individual and the collective, as well as the global and the local. Here, this special issue will explore three crucial focus areas where phygital intelligence is reshaping architecture. |
