This review is from: Techniques and Technologies in Morphogenetic Design (Architectural Design) (Paperback)
I freely hate blobitecture and its practitioners; however, I found the work in this book to be the most convincing exploration of WHY you would look into the subject from a systems standpoint; to begin by observing natural structural systems (of bamboo, etc.), then deriving architectural systems from these observations, and then deforming these systems by introducing other architectural requirements (site, unit size variation, etc., etc.). I could see how computational design applied to complex topography would be a very elegant and useful application for such thinking, and beyond. Reluctantly accept the potential for this wide open field of architectural systematization. But practitioners beware!! 90% of that stuff is bs flash, and exemplifies the mentality of: "I don't know what I want, but I know how to get it."
