Digital Architecture Now: A Global Survey of Emerging Talent

The latest wave in digital architecture, featuring over 40 firms and 200 projects from around the world.

The practice of architecture has changed more radically in the last fifteen years than perhaps at any time in its entire history.

The commercial availability of complex software and its reliant hardware technologies have resulted in a fast, accurate, and globally transferable design culture.

While the first generation of digital architects was often preoccupied by pure formal experimentation,

the new practitioners - most of whom have only known digital tools, fabrication methods, and communication--address a more diverse agenda. From the environment to social responsibility, they have an acute awareness of the built world that informs and animates their architecture.

Many of the new techniques pioneered by digital architects more than a decade ago are now finding their way into mainstream architecture, creating a greater public appreciation of, and appetite for, what was once perceived as “radical” architecture. 872 illustrations, 700 in color.

Presenting the hottest architectural visionaries from around the world,

digital architecture now celebrates the conceptual architects who are pushing digital design and software to their limits. In his introduction and concluding essay, Neil Spiller places this contemporary work in the context of recent developments and considers the future direction of digital architecture.

The heart of the book features architects’ best projects, presented in vivid, colourful and breath-taking detail through texts, plans and renderings that challenge our assumptions about 3-D space and redefine the future of architecture.
