From Descriptive Geometry to Smartgeometry: First Steps Towards Digital Architecture
Architect Mark Burry offers a personal account of his adventures in the world of applied architectural geometry — a journey that has gone from a solo experience to a shared experience. Since the first events, he has been an extremely influential and inspirational part of the Smartgeometry (SG) community, especially relating to his work completing Gaudí's unfinished masterpiece, the Sagrada Família Basilica, using bespoke digital tools. In this chapter, he reflects on over two decades of engagement with what he regards as an elusive concept: emerging digital architecture. He discusses how his work has gone from descriptive geometry, through computing and analyzing geometry, to a collective notion of ‘smart’ geometry.
