Abstract
The understanding of materials as active, whether compressed,
under tension or flexed, allows for novel solutions that extend
and challenge the space of design. The approaches towards the
integration of material behaviour on the conceptual, construction,
production as well as on the level of digital design system can
serve as a blueprint of how to design with the complexity that
characterises the current design space of building practice. This
paper focuses on four different approaches to integrate material
performance into digital design exemplified in four physical
demonstrators by CITA, the Centre for Information Technology
and Architecture in Copenhagen.
