Description
Recent years have seen significant changes in architectural practice, where digital technology is widespread and commonplace – a condition referred to as “post-digital”. Technological and ecological disruptions are forcing architects to adapt and re-strategize. This issue features research and education institutions where such explorations are being actively pursued: Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles, Bartlett School of Architecture at University College London, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. It introduces pioneering projects that push the boundaries in their respective fields, redefining architecture within the post-digital context.
