core.recommendations: Autogenic Structures

(484 views)

We are pleased to announce the long awaited release of Evan Douglis ‘ new book “Autogenic Structures” . With work spanning the last 10 years from institutions such as Columbia University, Pratt Institute, Sci-Arc & University of Buffalo, it gives us a rare glimpse into a canon of the architectural educational system. I can confidently say that with the seeds that were planted in these studios, we are now only beginning to see the effects in the world at large. Purchase it to see why FRAME Magazine has given him the title of “The Mythos Maker”

CIGNA headquarters x Velux 08′ midterm

Developed in the 1950s, the CIGNA headquarters was based on departmental adjacencies and assembly line workflow. With the development of current communication systems, the original building organization is consequently superseded.

Watz + Knight Capital Group

(183 views)

Marius Watz has some exceptional work up on his flickr page that he has done for the 2008 annual conference of the Security Traders Association. The idea of warping time into a circle and then projecting it onto a sphere opens up some interesting questions. This and the explosive iconographic nature of the work is rather fitting considering what has transpired over the last several weeks. enjoy!

liquid structures from Keith Peters

(195 views)

Images are from Keith Peters site art from code. This is just a small sample of his work and you can find many more experiments on his site. He has been rather relentless in a wide breath of experimentation. In some cases the ability of the line work to oscillate in a state fluidity and rigidity is rather captivating. As if we were watching a hyper intricate steel space frame melt then recombine.
