Architecture Transformed
This book examines the key role of the digital image in architecture over four decades – in the process of digitizing knowledge in theory and practice – as well as its influence on architectural design and visualization: The transition from the analogue to the digital age is analyzed on the basis of 51 design visualizations, from hand drawings to hybrid methods to computer renderings, in order to illustrate how architecture has been impacted by digital methods and media. Architecture Transformed is the result of a collaboration between the Deutsches Dokumentationszentrum für Kunstgeschichte – Bildarchiv Foto Marburg and the Chair of Architecture and Visualization at Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg as part of the German Research Foundation program entitled “The Digital Image.” On the practice of the digital image in architecture With essays and 51 design visualizations by David Chipperfield, Odile Decq & Benoît Cornette, Gramazio & Kohler, Herzog & de Meuron, Greg Lynn, Jean Nouvel, Oswald Mathias Ungers, among others With in-depth explanatory texts
Multihalle Mannheim; the documentation on the design and execution work of Mannheim Hall
"The documentation on the design and execution work of the Mannheim Hall was prepared at the IL, directed by Frei Otto, in close cooperation with the architects, Mutschler & Partners, Mannheim, and the engineers, Ove Arup & Partners, London. This publication is, at the same time, a report on the sub-project "Experience gained by buildings" of the Sonderforschungsbereich 64 "Wide-Span Lightweight Structures" of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft."
Muḥammad ʿAbduh and His Interlocutors: Conceptualizing Religion in a Globalizing World
In Muḥammad ʿAbduh and his Interlocutors: Conceptualizing Religion in a Globalizing World, Ammeke Kateman offers an account of Muḥammad ʿAbduh’s Islamic Reformism in a globalizing and diverse world.
Biomimetic Research for Architecture and Building Construction
This book comprises a first survey of the Collaborative Research Center SFB-TRR 141 ‘Biological Design and Integrative Structures – Analysis, Simulation and Implementation in Architecture’, funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft since October 2014. The SFB-TRR 141 provides a collaborative framework for architects and engineers from the University of Stuttgart, biologists and physicists from the University of Freiburg and geoscientists and evolutionary biologists from the University of Tübingen. The programm is conceptualized as a dialogue between the disciplines and is based on the belief that that biomimetic research has the potential to lead everyone involved to new findings ...
Informed Form Generation
Over the past decades we witnessed a tremendous shift in the principles of architectural design based on the advancement of computer aided design and manufacturing. Computation in architecture came with a whole new set of techniques as well as theories that did change the way we build and design today. This research investigates ways to embed computational simulation and optimisation into architectural design processes at an early, conceptual stage. Simulation and optimization are not seen as a post-design strategy to improve performance aspects of a well-developed design, but rather as design strategies in their own rights. Therefore, design approaches employing simulation and optimization ...
Rethinking Prototyping
Design modelling has benefited from computation but in most projects to date there is still a strong division between computational design and simulation leading up to construction and the completed building that is cut off from the computational design modelling. The Design Modelling Symposium Berlin 2013 would like to challenge the participants to reflect on the possibility of computational systems that bridge design phase and occupancy of buildings. This rethinking of the designed artifact beyond its physical has had profound effects on other industries already. How does it affect architecture and engineering? At the scale of engineering and building systems new perspectives may open up by engaging built form as a continuous prototype, which can track and respond during use and serve as a real world implementation of its design model. This has been tried many times from intelligent façades to smart homes and networked grids but much of it was only technology driven and not approached from a more holistic design perspective.
Employer-Branding: Bedeutung fr die strategische Markenfhrung
In der heutigen Zeit ist es f r Unternehmen sehr wichtig im "War for Talents" gut aufgestellt zu sein. Trotz berangebot an Arbeitskraft auf dem deutschen Arbeitsmarkt gibt es im Bereich der F hrungs- und Fachkr fte einen Mangel zu verzeichnen. Vorausschauend muss der Personalbedarf ermittelt werden, die passenden High Potentials gefunden und auch langfristig an das Unternehmen gebunden werden. Es empfiehlt sich dazu der Aufbau einer starken Employer Brand, auch Arbeitgebermarke genannt, um als Employer of Choice wahrgenommen zu werden. Nur wenn die Mitarbeiter die Marke "leben" und dies auch nach au en auf die Marke abstrahlt, kann ein Unternehmen auf Dauer erfolgreich sein. Diese Arbeit gib...
Timber Gridshells
Throughout history, people have constructed simple timber lattice shelters such as the tepee or yurt, covered with animal skins, leaves, grasses and woven fabrics. Over the last fifty years, more sophisticated ‘webs of wood’ have emerged, with timber gridshells in particular becoming a structurally expressive form of architecture. Recent developments in digital design, 3-D modelling software, timber fabrication technologies as well as trends towards low-carbon construction have further reinforced architects’ interest in the use of lightweight timber grids and lattice structures. This timely book charts the origin and evolution of the timber gridshell and its relation to timber lattice ...
