A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Maria Bessa provides a masterclass in algorithmic design, tracing the roots of the algorithm back to Aristotle and 9th‐century Persia. She explores innovative contemporary examples of the application of the algorithm and highlights its potential for architects working intuitively in a way that will enable them to achieve a level of performance that was once only attainable at a post‐design stage.
