Author: Frank Stepper, Timo Carl & Sarah Blahut
This book documents the teaching philosophy developed by Frank Stepper and his team at the University of Kassel. The approach places an emphasis on fostering and developing aesthetic and formal imagination through experimentation. Thinking the impossible helps to formulate architectural concepts that progress beyond predictable causalities and functional constraints. For the emergence of innovative designs and novel construction typologies, analogue models are augmented with computational strategies and digital fabrication methods. Includes introductory to thesis level projects, and experimental videos with QR code links. With contributions by Hitoshi Abe, Marie Therese Harnancourt-Fuchs, Steffanie Hennecke and others.
ISBN 9783035626223. Birkhauser Verlag. pb. 144 pages. 100 colour, 100 b/w ills. 28 x 22 cm.
