The title of this issue of the Nexus Network Journal,
"Architecture, Mathematics and Structure," is deliberately
ambiguous. At first glance, it might seem to indicate the
relationship between what buildings look like and how they stand
up. This is indeed one aspect of what we are concerned with here.
But on a deeper level, the fundamental concept of structure is what
connects architecture to mathematics. Both architecture and
mathematics are highly structured formal systems expressed through
a symbolic language. For architecture, the generating structure
might be geometrical, musical, modular, or fractal. Once we
understand the nature of the structure underlying the design, we
are able to "read" the meaning inherent in the architectural forms.
The papers in this issue all explore themes of structure in
different ways.
