Algorithmic Methods of Architectural Morphogenesis

Algorithmic / parametric architecture thesis was friendly met during defence as well as took 1st place at CIS MArch diploma competition-review in Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine. Digital architecture and its methods are researched, classified and organised. Implementation based on author’s projects were shown.

Layouts design derives from Rhodonea Curve research using attractor theory.

Interest, called to the thesis (and especially to its text portion) spawned intention to adapt it to publish as book in the Ukrainian language (English is also possible), which may be one of the first classification methods and tools of digital architecture in Ukraine and the CIS. Currently, work is continuing on the preparation and adaptation of material for publication, which will be released tentatively in late 2012.
