This book explores the aesthetic potential of these new types of moving facades. Critique of theory and practice in architecture is combined here with ideas from kinetic art of the 1960's. From this background the basic principles of kinetics are defined and are used to generate experimental computer animations. By classifying the animations, a theory of kinetic form called 'state change' is developed. This design research provides a unique and timely resource for those interested in the capacity of kinetics to enliven the public face of architecture.FacadesDesigns and plansMotion in architectureArchitectural designElectronic books.FacadesMotion in architecture.Architectural design.729/.1Moloney Jules.912117MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461367303321Designing kinetics for architectural facades2042401UNINA
