Next Generation Architecture

"A new generation of architects is pushing digital technology to its limits and continuing a tradition of 'organic' architecture, often labelled 'blobitecture'. A few architects in the pre-digital era anticipated the shape of today's sleek and supple buildings, but computers have helped to make many of today's large, truly innovative architectural projects buildable. Up until now, the new generation's architecture work has been overshadowed by that of its forerunners. This volume defines the next generation and captures the latest trends in architecture. There are thirty architects featured, including Greg Lynn, ShoP, Ben van Berkel and Caroline Bos, Wes Jones, Lindy Roy, Foreign Office Archtiects, Rem Koolhaas and Frank Gehry." - book jacket.
