Towards an Organic Morphology: Biological Architecture in a Digital World

ByMichael Johnson

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
When looking at Laugier’s Primitive hut, it shows mankind’s desire to build as well as to feel comfortable and safe from the primitive world. As we moved further away from shelter that was built of the earth, we became disconnected from architecture. Additionally, architectural theory became stagnant in a synthetic, postmodern world that has just started to enter into the digital era. If architecture is to find its place in the ever-expanding digital world, it must bridge the gap between the natural world and the digital world. Architecture must innovate digital tools of design and analysis to derive flexible and organic forms that can sustain a dialogue between nature and humanity. Architecture should be the catalyst that synthesizes a harmony between man and nature.
