Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / 978-1-4020-6527-9 2007 [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / 978-1-4020-6527-9] Sydney (Australia) 11–13 July 2007, pp. 129-137 |
| summary |
The linkage between the worlds of Architecture, which involves the design and construction of the built environment, and Computer Technology, which involves practical applications of computation, still has a vast, as yet untapped potential. What if the implications of the linked term, ‘computer-architecture,’ are explored to reveal its full scope? This paper describes a unique method to analyze and code works of Architecture in a way that enables one to discover hidden computational structures in the works of Architecture. The case being made here is that the inherent structures of architecture may be computational structures as well. |
