• New role of the model• Increased rigour in form-finding process• Feasibility tests during design process• Accurate and reliable costing• Increased degree of prediction• Use of CAM techniques

• Artificialexcavation
• Tracing• Layering• Deformation
Theory • Techniques:• Shear• Interference• Intersection• Distortion• Scaling• Superposition• Rotation
Some books:

Jean-François Bédard:
Cities of artificial excavation
Peter Eisenman• Artificial excavation
• Site as palimpsest.• Find traces of history.• Interpret form and meaning.• Derive new forms and meaning by layering
and deforming.
Theory
Peter EisenmanTheory • Shear
• Skew objects
• Interference• Study interactions
• Intersection• Emergent shapes
• Distortion• Transform shapes
• Scaling• Rotation
Peter Eisenman
• Historical reading of the site• Superposition
• Deformation strategy• Diagrammatic image
• Elaboration• Design
Method
Peter Eisenman• Indexical Time
• The trace and superposition form points in time.
• Movement in time from one location.• Dynamics of the design are forced by
changing perspectives.

• Deep Plan• Connection of movement, urban
design, structural design, and brief.• Public construction
• Plan results from forces• Play with influences. End of hierarchy.
• New task of the architect• Searching for complexity.• Between art and airports.

• Analysis site• Urban space• Movement patterns
• Analysis brief/design task• Activities in time• Public/private relationships
• Concept for the design task
Method
• Choose a diagram:• Image with multiple meanings• Multiply, generate, instrumentalise• Against typological fixation• Introduction of concepts outside

• Concepts:• Force• Curvature• Multi-type of
performance envelope
• Topology• Multiplicities
• Techniques:• Spline• NURBS Surface• Animation• Metaballs• Blebs, flowers,
strands, lattices
Greg Lynn
• Type and instances• Ideal type notion• Multi-type of performance
envelope• Size, position, rotation, direction,
speed are determined by elements of the design
• Surface results from elements
Theory
Greg Lynn
• When space is not neutral
• When architectural elements are responsive
• When structure is in a process of becoming
• …How to investigate architecture?
Theory
Greg Lynn
• Study of architecture via computer model
• The computer mediates:• Topology• Time• Parameters
Theory
Greg Lynn
• Topological elements are the result of a calculation
• Topological line is a movement through control points (spline)
• Topological surface is also movement through control points (nurbs surface)
Theory
Greg Lynn
• Spline and NURBS surface denote influence of vectors
• Multiplicities
• Curvature of line or surface reflects conditions
• Relations can be studied with animation
Theory
Greg Lynn
• Analyse brief for major spaces.
• Decide on computational structure.
• Relate structure to the site.
• Determine forces on structure.
Method
Greg Lynn
• Keyframe major conditions on structure.
• Animate and study interactions.
• Freeze and develop one or more instances of the animation.
