  • Call for Papers - Shaping Formal Methods for Architecture: Syntax, Typology and Computation

    Guest Editors:
    Theodoros Dounas (Faculty of Design Sciences, University of Antwerp, Belgium) and Davide Lombardi (Architecture Department at the Xi’an Jiaotong – Liverpool University, China)

    Theme: Architectural composition can be conducted using three methods, syntactically (bringing elements together), typologically (translating an already existing archetype into a new composition) and computationally (by computing the processes that create the composition). Embedded within each of these methods of creating architectural form are mathematical rules or processes that shape the way architects create designs, and within which these designs can be tested. For example, a sequence of geometric transformations can easily be encoded into algorithms or grammars, while parallel processes of analysis evaluate and validate the designs created.

    Submission deadline: 31 March 2024
