Today s design professionals are faced with challenges on all
fronts. They need not only to keep in step with rapid technological
changes and the current revolution in design and construction
processes, but to lead the industry. This means actively seeking to
innovate through design research, raising the bar in building
performance and adopting advanced technologies in their practice.
In a constant drive to improve design processes and services, how
is it possible to implement innovations? And, moreover, to
assimilate them in such a way that design, methods and technologies
remain fully integrated? Focusing on innovations in architecture,
this book covers new materials and design methods, advances in
computational design practices, innovations in building
technologies and construction techniques, and the integration of
research with design. Moreover, it discusses strategies for
integrating innovation into design practices, risks and economic
impacts. Through numerous case studies, it illustrates how
innovations have been implemented on actual architectural projects,
and how design and technical innovations are used to improve
building performance, as well as design practices in cutting-edge
architectural and engineering firms. Projects of all scales and
building types are discussed in the book, ranging from small-scale
installations, academic and commercial buildings to large-scale
mixed-use, healthcare, civic, academic, scientific research and
sports facilities. Work from design firms around the globe and of
various scales is discussed in the book, including for example
Asymptote Architecture, cepezed, CO Architects, Consarc Architects,
FAAB Architektura, Gerber Architekten, HOK, IDOM-ACXT, MAD
Architects, Morphosis Architects, SDA | Synthesis Design +
Architecture, Studiotrope, Perkins+Will, Richter Dahl Rocha &
Associes, Snohetta, Rob Ley Studio, Trahan Architects, UNStudio and
Zaha Hadid Architects, among many others.
