250 words blog for week 2



The digital turn in architecture by Mario Carpo has gone through several stages to provide a complete historical timeline of the rise to pre-eminence of computer design and production. From folding to cyberspace, nonlinearity and hypersurfaces, from versioning to scripting, emergence, information modelling and parametricism. During the early 1990s many labour are afraid that activities and functions would soon migrate from physical space to cyberspace, and that the design of new electronic venues would soon replace the design of traditional building in brick and mortar. Mario Carpo mention that in the early 1990s, digital design does appear like a continuation of deconstructivism with digital means, and many of today’s star architects uses the folding theory to apply with current digital design illustrating the core aspect of design still matters.

 Mario Carpo mention Technology still to continue evolve, digital design went through major theoretical developments alongside adaptions.  In the late 1990s the shift from form making to process the adoption of new software for information exchange and for the management of building and construction tasks, this new family of software is known under “Building Information Technology” (BM) taking important design role in architecture. Mario Carpo information on digital aspect in architecture are very similar to the article “architecture or revolution” The article clam that the era of 1990 has brought great transformation, but with a fear of human tool and automatic  inducers of social needs only to slowly evolving changes, and that profound laws of architecture based on volume, rhythm and pro-portion.
