Summary

Architects often employ design methods to help them find more creative forms. These methods make it possible to break free of the traditional canon of forms and established paradigms. At the same time, there must be enough leeway for a functional, systematic design conception to take shape. This volume focuses in depth on the design methods that have decisively shaped current architectural practice.Themes are - Diagrammatic methods (using drawings and schematic representations), -Mimetic methods (imitative), - Parametric methods (using a characteristic quantity), - Automated and digital design methods of the contemporary avant-garde, e.g. scaling, datascapes, folding, and morphing.

Im architektonischen Entwerfen werden gerne Entwurfsmethoden zur kreativen Formfindung eingesetzt, die eine Loslösung vom traditionellen Formenkanon und eingefahrenen Denkmustern ermöglichen. Gleichzeitig muss genügend Spielraum für eine funktionale, systematische Entwurfskonzeption entstehen. In diesem Band werden jene Entwurfsmethoden besonders ausführlich diskutiert, die den aktuellen Architekturdiskurs maßgeblich geprägt haben.Themen: Diagrammatische Methoden (über eine zeichnerische, schematische Darstellung) Mimetische Methoden (nachahmend) Parametrische Methoden (über eine kennzeichnende Größe) Automatische und digitale Entwurfsmethoden der aktuellen Avantgarde wie z.B. Scaling, Datascapes, Folding, Morphing.
