The Architectural Concepts and Design Properties as a Complex System |
| Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to propose a new design concepts and properties within new paradigm. Contemporary students of architectural design seem to redefine the mechanic and reductive approach to design method based upon Euclidean geometry.
In this study, the organic space-time and holistic view-point that constitutes the background for all this is radically different from the modern design. It consists of three sections as follow:
First, it presents a concept of complex system and properties of complexity that we find in new natural science and tries to combine that new geometry with architectural design to provide a methodological basis for morphogenesis and transformation.
Second, the complexity in architecture is defined as a fractal shape, folded space, and irreducible organic system that cannot be fully understood by modernist idea of architecture.
Third, the complexity in architecture is strategy based on the electronic paradigm that would enable the emergence of creative possibility.
The complexity theory offer new insights to explain not only natural laws but also define dynamic architecture.
In fine, this study places a great emphasis on the organic world-view to the spatial organization, which I hope will contribute to generating a greater number of creative possibilities for design. |
