Price : 28 €
ISBN : 978-2-910385-49-1
Bilingual edition (En/Fr)

This book has been published on the occasion of an international architectural contest for construction of an art collector's house. Natalie Seroussi brought together six out of the most innovative young architectual firms in order to design a pavilion intended to house her art collection. Those six firms have a common point , all of them actively using the profound changes brought about by the introduction of intense software-based processes into the very heart of modern architectural practices, as all of them integrate computational procedures, that is, processes based on an intense application of computer-based calculation algorithms. The use of formal programming languages and the exploration of advanced specialised software seem to have completely redefined the principles of architectural design. Read more | Buy
