Techniques of Designing and Executing Digital Architecture

Book summary: The book represents a link between design techniques and digital fabrication methods to solve the recurrent problems in contemporary architectural design to build double and complex curved structures. Primarily, this book explores ways to integrate manufacturing processes information into design phases, focuses on the digital representation of surface geometry and its ability for describing the construct-ability of the building enclosure systems. This was achieved by using innovative fabrication methods and available construction materials, through the analysis of related fields, Finally, combining both the relations between the design methods and the production processes, the book explore the connection between form, geometry and construct-ability in digital architecture
