This comprehensive book delves into the intricate relationship between digital fabrication and the design-build studio, encompassing both academic and professional settings. It presents a rich collection of 17 essays and case studies, authored by renowned scholars and practitioners such as Kengo Kuma, Joseph Choma, Dan Rockhill, Keith Zawistowski, and Marie Zawistowski. Their theoretical and practical contributions shed light on design-build at various levels, offering valuable insights.
The book begins with four introductory essays that trace the historical trajectory of the design-build movement. These essays explore the emergence of design-build in the pedagogy of the Bauhaus, the integration of technology into architectural design, and the profound influence of the act of making on the design-build studio.
The subsequent chapters are divided into two parts. The first part examines traditional pedagogical models for the design-build studio, while the second part focuses on experimental methods employed in design-build programs. Together, these chapters explore human behavior, social-cultural trends, and motivations within socially minded studios, grounded in a service-learning model. They examine component-based studios, where innovation thrives, enabling the research and testing of new materials, assemblies, sustainable principles, and zero-energy prototypes.
Illustrated with over 200 captivating color images, this book serves as a valuable resource for architecture students, educators, and practitioners interested in exploring the profound impact of digital fabrication on the global design-build movement. It provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the transformative power of technology in shaping the future of architectural practice.
