Imprint + AcknowledgmentsIn Zeiten, in denen der Begriff "Natur" im Kern seiner biologischen Materialitat in Frage gestellt wird, müssen wir die Zusammenhange zwischen Architektur und Natur neu überdenken. Dies betrifft nicht nur Strategien für einen verantwortlichen Umgang mit der Umwelt, sondern ebenso menschliches Verhalten und kulturelle oder demografische Varietat. Um diesen Herausforderungen zu begegnen, sollte man sich dem Unbekannten stellen und die Disziplin Architektur zu einer integrierten und interdisziplinaren Praxis hin entwickeln. Das Buch präsentiert zukunftsweisende Design-Beschreibungen, erarbeitet von führenden Praktikern und Forschern, die nach neuen Verbindungen zwischen Architektur, Natur und Mensch für eine zukünftige, lebende Architektur suchen. Rund um die drei eng miteinander vernetzten Kernthemen "Bioinspiration", "Materiability" und "Intelligence" befasst sich das Buch mit dem Beginn eines neu entstehenden Design-Gebiets, in dem die Symbiose von Physik, Biologie, Informatik und Design die Neudefinition dessen verspricht, was wir heute als Architektur bezeichnen.In times where the very concept of 'nature' is questioned not only in its philosophical dimension, but in the core of its biological materiality, we need to reconsider the interrelations between architecture and nature. This not only applies to strategies on environmental responsibility but equally on anticipatory human behavior and cultural or demographic variety. To address these challenges this book proposes to embrace the unknown and cultivate the architectural discipline towards an integrated and cross-disciplinary practice. It unravels compelling innovative and forward-thinking design narratives by leading international practitioners and researchers who investigate novel associations between architecture, nature and humanity for a future, alive architecture. Structured around the three closely cross-linked core themes "bioinspiration", "materiability", and "intelligence" the book engages with the starting point of an emerging new design field, where the symbiosis of physics, biology, computing and design promises the redefinition of what we call architecture today.Applied Virtuality Book SeriesOrganic architectureElectronic books.Organic architecture.720.47Kretzer ManuelHovestadt LudgerMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463706903321Alive1991653UNINA
