Author: Lars Hesselgren, Shrikant Sharma, Johannes Wallner (eds)
A symposium presenting both theoretical and practical work linked to new geometric developments applicable to architecture. The symposium aims to gather contemporary architectural trends that push the building envelope towards free form, and which respond to these design challenges with a renewed mathematical rigour. A research section of 26 papers is preceded by an interview with Frederic Migayrou (Deputy director of the Musee National d'Art Moderne, Centre de Creation Industrielle -- Pompidou Centre), where he explores the larger context of free-form architecture with respect to contemporary architectural design and the last two centuries of structural engineering.
ISBN 9783709112502. Springer Verlag. hb. 250 pages. 160 colour ills. 16.5 x 24.2 cm.
