INFORMATIONS

A computational tool for proportional studies in architectural composition was presented and two case studies illustrated some of the capabilities of the software. Future work will deal with the development of more refined proportional measures, extensions to more complex optimization models for the extraction of proportional measures, and streamlining of computational procedures used in both analysis and synthesis.

Our understanding of where we live
is not so philosophical but rather pragmatic

Understanding urban environment with quantifiable measures has been the source of debates
Well then becomes the one of heated discussions … now possiblly the one of main trends

Toward a New Architecture
