FABRIC[ated] delves into the transformative power of fabric in architecture, exploring its role as a catalyst for innovation, reflection, change, and transformation. This comprehensive book examines the profound ways in which research and development in fabric have influenced and revolutionized architecture, teaching, and design throughout history.
Fabric, characterized by its responsiveness, flexibility, impermanence, fluidity, and adaptability, interacts with and influences architecture, offering innovative solutions and heightened material responsibility. The foundation and theory chapters establish a clear precedent and vision for fabric's position in architectural discourse, paving the way for its future development.
The case study section delves into 14 international projects through three distinct threads: veiling, compression, and tension. These case studies showcase a diverse range of projects, from the HiLo unit at Nest to CASTs fabric-formed concrete projects, as well as a thoughtful exploration of the impact of fabric on the professional work of SO-IL and Kennedy Violich Architects. Through these projects, the authors demonstrate novel and fresh methods for addressing sustainability and social justice through the innovative use of fabric in architecture.
In essence, FABRIC[ated] presents fabric as a multifaceted material that encompasses drape, skin, veil, mold, concept, and inspiration. It recognizes fabric as an essential and innovative component in the development of socially conscious architecture, providing readers with pedagogical and practical models for international projects that highlight fabric's application in architectural design. Whether you are a novice or an expert in the field, this book appeals to architecture students, practitioners, and enthusiasts alike, offering valuable insights and perspectives on the transformative potential of fabric in the built environment.
