A new title in the Architectural Design series that explores the
potential of computational mathematics in cutting-edge design
Mathematics has always been a vital tool in the architect's
trade, but the last fifteen years have seen a sharp rise in the
power of computers and has led to computational abilities far
beyond anything previously available. Modern design software and
computing power have changed the traditional role of geometry in
architecture and opened up new possibilities enabled by topology,
non-Euclidean geometry, and other areas of mathematics.
With insight from a top-notch list of contributors, including
such notables as Philippe Morel and Fabien Scheurer, "Mathematics
in Space" discusses how the advent of computation and information
technology has affected the work of contemporary architects.This
new title in the Architectural Design series updates architectural
mathematics since the digital revolutionWith world-class
contributors, this is an essential resource for anyone interested
in the ways computation has transformed the disciplineThe book
explores fascinating issues in modern design, most importantly the
impact of mathematics on contemporary design creativity
For students and practitioners alike, "Mathematics in Space"
covers vital topics in a constantly changing discipline.
