9783764386887: Complexity: Design Strategy and World View (Context Architecture)

Inhaltsangabe

Today it is complexity studies, with their starting point in physics, that define the current approach to the concept of complexity. They have established a new connection between the natural sciences and information technology and have thus become a central premise of computer-based approaches to design.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

When the term “complexity” appears in architectural contexts,

it is clear at once that it has more than one definition, more

than one interpretation, more than one architectural conceptualization.

Perhaps more than other cultural disciplines,

architecture is confronted by complexity on the most diverse

levels. Clearly, it is often a question of models of a further level

of complexity, and hence also of conceiving a different world

picture, rather than of precisely categorizing or analyzing

what already exists.What is required are modes of reading

complexity that – despite or precisely because of their disparities

– lead inexorably to questions concerning their respective

systems of reference: which context generates which concept

of complexity?Which concept of complexity generates which

context?

With essays by Clemens Bellut, Johann Feichter,

Andrea Gleiniger, Klaus Mainzer, Denise Scott Brown,

Kostas Terzidis, Robert Venturi, and Georg Vrachliotis
