Abstract |
Digital architecture has some such features as topological, decentralized, nonhierarchical, dematerialized, unrealistic and flexible. These are related to 'fold', 'rhizome' and 'simulacre' generated from Deleuze?Guattari's thoughts. According to this hypothesis, first, this paper analyzes Greg Lynn's digital form creation method. Second, it proves that there are limits in making form and materialization of Greg Lynn's and suggests a new method for making digital form to overcome these limits. Digital form making methods suggested above would reveal the possibilities that make the concepts of digital design more and more materialized and actualized. In conclusion, this paper defines the concepts of digital architectural design which has been used without a definition and suggests a new method of digital design which appropriates a digital paradigm. This paper has the background that the method of digital design plays an important role in creating a contemporary architectural form. Also, it has an additional meaning that a new field, in other words 'a theory combined with digital design', emerges in the field of making architectural form. |
