The book investigates the subject of urban ecology from the perspective of architectural design, engaging its definition at multiple levels, the biological, the informational and the social. The book has two main goals - to discuss the contemporary relevance of a systemic practice to architectural design, and to share a toolbox of informational design protocols developed to describe the city as a territory of self-organization, a new kind of emergent "real-time world-city". Structured in the form of a manual, the authors draw on nearly a decade of design experiments from their ecoLogicStudio practice.…mehr
The book investigates the subject of urban ecology from the perspective of architectural design, engaging its definition at multiple levels, the biological, the informational and the social. The book has two main goals - to discuss the contemporary relevance of a systemic practice to architectural design, and to share a toolbox of informational design protocols developed to describe the city as a territory of self-organization, a new kind of emergent "real-time world-city". Structured in the form of a manual, the authors draw on nearly a decade of design experiments from their ecoLogicStudio practice.
Marco Poletto and Claudia Pasquero are co-founders of ecoLogicStudio and Unit Masters at the Architectural Association. ecoLogicStudio has built an international reputation for its innovative research combining systemic thinking with algorithmic design and large-scale prototyping. Completed projects include a public library, the "Lightwall" house and a large eco-roof prototype. ecoLogicStudio has presented installations at the most important Architecture Biennales, including Venice, London and Seville, Istanbul and Milan Fuorisalone. Claudia and Marco lecture internationally and in 2012 will be Visiting Master tutors at the IAAC in Barcelona and Hans Strauch Visiting Critics at Cornell University in Ithaca, and will co-direct the new AA Visiting School in Milan, titled "Cyber-Gardening the City". They live and work in London.
