  2. The History of Digital DesignIn The 1980s • The 1980s proved to be the era when architects finally embraced the digital in increasing numbers. The well known assertion of Gregg Lynn:‖ The nineties started angular an ended curvilinear. In architecture started deconstructive and ended topological.‖ (Lynn, Architectural Curvilinearity: The folded, the pliant and the supple, 1993) Digital Architecture AE 461 course -2013-

  3. The History of Digital DesignIn The 1990s • For architects, the publication in 1991 of a collection of essays edited by Michael Benedikt entitled Cyberspace- First Steps was the necessary catalyst. The seminal essay in this collection was 'Liquid Architectures in Cyberspace' by the architect Marcos Novak, who had had his own digital theory in 1979. In his essay he firmly grounded architectural cyberspace, defining its potential as the province of the avant-garde and relating its idea of flow or liquidity back to previous avant-gardes both within and outside of architectural theoretical discourse.

  4. The History of Digital DesignIn The 1990s • John Frazer augmented his own progress through his work as well as in his 1995 publication, An Evolutionary Architecture. That investigates the fundamental form-generating processes in architecture, paralleling a wider scientific search for a theory of morphogenesis in the natural world. The creative powers of natural evolution are manifested by creating virtual architectural models that respond to changing environments. Moreover the aim of an evolutionary architecture is to achieve in the built environment the metabolic balance that is characteristic of the natural environment. Frazer's researches continue today and are very influential on the current generation of digital architects. Digital Architecture AE 461 course -2013-

  5. The History of Digital DesignIn the last ten years • Lars Spuybroek's Fresh H20 building in the Netherlands was an important piece on the way to emerge responsive architecture. KasOosterhuis 's attempts to create digital real-time architectures have been influential .Mark Burry's revealing of AntoniGaudfi's second-order geometry has recast the Catalan's place in the pantheon of proto-cyber spatial architects. Burry has been in the forefront working with parametric and generative components. Marcos Novak's AlloSpace, AlloSphere, Eversion and sarchitecture; and Greg Lynn's work on Animate Space.

  6. The History of Digital Designtoday • Today, parametric design and generative-component design have also developed whole references of notions about skinning, evolving and fabricating architecture. Some architects have, like Oosterhuis, attempted to construct elements of buildings that have the ability to respond to data streams in real time. Digital Architecture AE 461 course -2013-

  7. The History of Digital Designtoday • Others have recognized that complex computationally drawn cutting and routing patterns have used them to design furniture and screens, using new materials such as Nano materials which are find wide application in many kinds of products due to their ability to change their physical properties, as the research demonstrate in the previous chapter.

  8. The History of Digital Designtoday • The envelopes of buildings can be created from a series of surfaces visualized on computers and if they are built, machine instructions can be sent straight to the factory to enable full-size fabrication. After the digital revolution, when : a lot of architectural babies were thrown out with the bath water, came a period when cyberspace, virtuality, biotechnology and even nanotechnology all had an impact on architecture and the future paradigm of the city.
