Performative Materials in Architecture and Design addresses the convergence of several significant and fundamental advancements in the ways that materials and environments are designed, evaluated and experienced within architecture and related disciplines. The emergence of experimental and ultra-performing materials, interactive processing systems and digital design and fabrication techniques has established an interconnected network or technological inputs that has stimulated the development of materials, assemblies and systems with performative properties. Providing an overview of representative design projects and relevant theories, this volume illuminates both the interaction of these technologies and the role of materiality in research, design and practice.
Rashida Ng and Sneha Patel are assistant professors of architecture at the Tyler School of Art at Temple University. Together they cofounded SEAMLab, a nonprofit think tank dedicated to research and the dissemination of design-based knowledge focused on materiality.
