A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Digitale Integration: Collapse Complexity – Innovation Through Digital Integration
The increasing complexity in building processes is challenging current architectural practices – However, innovation through interdisciplinary digital integration offers a solution. Instead of answering the ever-increasing requirements in terms of sustainability, energy, and functional demands by introducing additional building elements, academic research and traditional craft can point towards alternative approaches in order to handle complexity. These focus on the integration of functional benefits into the material itself. Only a few avant-garde building and research projects – such as the European industry-led Innochain project – show how the pressing need for innovation in the building sector might be answered through integration. The key lies in a more consistent application of a common digital platform, which all architects, engineers and fabricators use on an individual basis. Here, processes and tools can be connected directly, digital loops established, and all participants receive immediate feedback, overcoming existing barriers, and leading directly to process and product innovation. It is possible to transfer ideas and concepts developed in studio-like situations, to high-end fabrication machinery, allowing architects to tap into the creativity in urban setups, collaborating and producing with peers worldwide.
