Processes of construction are related to available technologies of production and assembly. IT has made a deep impact on design possibilities and the control of production logistics, enabling feats such as freeform architecture and increasingly precise elaboration. Alternately, the idea of Rapid Prototyping and Rapid Manufacturing Technology provides the chance to create one-off components and elements for architecture. We now have the opportunity to design and construct without the disadvantages of production resistance and assembly needs – to realize genuine IT-driven architecture.Imagine is a series of publications that investigates technology and material development to provide architects and designers with ideas for their design.Imagine 01: FacadesImagine 02: DeflateablesImagine 03: Performance Driven EnvelopesImagine 04: RapidsImagine 05: EnergyImagine 06: Reimagining the envelope
