How can the fundamental digital change taking place in design and construction be actively used to bring about cultural change in architecture? By exploring robotic production methods and innovative material developments, Achim Menges and Jan Knippers have succeeded in developing genuine digital building systems that combine architectural elegance with effective construction. The book provides an insight into ten years of joint research at the ICD and ITKE Institutes of Stuttgart University. Taking completed pavilions and buildings as examples, the authors demonstrate the viability of the underlying hypotheses that impressively push the limits of construction. Articles from international experts contribute to the current debate on architecture.

Wie kann die ergebnisoffene Untersuchung von Planungs- und Fertigungsmethoden zu neuen Konstruktionsformen und architektonischen Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten führen? Seit 2010 haben die Institute ICD und ITKE der Universität Stuttgart 14 gemeinsame experimentelle Bauten realisiert. Bislang gab es wissenschaftliche Veröffentlichungen zu den Einzelprojekten aber keine zusammenhängende Darstellung der übergeordneten Entwicklungslinien.
