Reihe: Architectural Design

A pioneering title, High Definition explores theonslaught of new and highly accurate digital metrology tools inlarge- and small-scale 3-D scanning and 3-D modelling. Capable ofmeasuring space to an accuracy of less than 1 mm, these tools offerunprecedented precision for the development and interrogation ofdesign before, during and post production. Over the last decade orso, the array of designers' digital tools to propose and maketheir ideas have evolved significantly, but the absence ofhigh-accuracy, zero-tolerance design production has often remainedthe missing piece between design and fulfilment. Innovativetechnologies are thus substantially recalibrating the way thatdesigners operate in the world between the drawn and the made,having the power to transform the architect's role from thatof visualiser to one that is intensely involved with therealisation of objects and buildings. High Definition willexamine the capabilities of advanced technologies in designproduction through their impact on design theory, practice andgreater levels of collaboration between design and manufacturing.It will permeate the entangled world between means and meaning andunravel a new understanding between the representation andproduction of architectural design.
