In this ground-breaking book, the first to provide an overview of
the theory and practice of experimental architecture, Rachel
Armstrong explores how interdisciplinary, design-led research
practices are beginning to redefine the possibilities of
architecture as a profession. Drawing on experts from disciplines
as varied as information technology, mathematics, poetry, graphic
design, scenography, bacteriology, marine applied science and
robotics, Professor Armstrong delineates original, cutting-edge
architectural experiments through essays, quotes, poetry, equations
and stories. Written by an acknowledged pioneer of architectural
experiment, this visionary book is ideal for students and
researchers wishing to engage in experimental, practice-based
architectural and artistic research. It introduces radical new
ideas about architecture and provides ideas and inspiration which
students and researchers can apply in their own work and proposals,
while practitioners can draw on it to transform their creative
assumptions and develop thereby a distinctive "edge" to stand out
in a highly competitive profession.
