“Computation has profound impact on both the perception and realisation of architectural form, space and structure. It shifts the way one perceives form, the way which in which form is purposed, and the way in which form is produced.” Achim Menges, a contemporary architect and professor explains that computation is essential to modern architecture, and completely changes the way we visualize our designs. Through these digital tools we are able to design structures that otherwise would be impossible if done on paper. It is these tools that has allowed architecture to reach its modern stage.
To understand computation and its relevance for architectural design, one must understand the difference between computational and computerisation. The design process consists of 2 stages, how they function, and what they consist of.
Sorry for this is what i could only come up with, i only kind of get the gist of it, couldnt understand enough to condense 20 pages into a summary.
