supposedly representing our present society, appear as faceless assemblies devoid of context, culture, and content. The

assemblies are increasingly standardized parts and meterials, where the needs for repitition and expediency are the

controlling factors. Urban context, spatial values, formal artistry and ultimately, the human experience are irrelevant forces

to the status quo of manufacturing design and architecture. The equivalent to this process is an experience of passivity,

and a disappearance of inspiration. Resulting constructions are ignorant of the demands of society and in denial of the

factors shaping our culture.

Our global culture continually advances and evolves in the wake of digital progression. As technology provides

electronic pathways of communication and the global exchange of ideas, society, in turn, develops new identities of

awareness, perception, and environment. Technology enables information to be simultaneously transposed among a

multiplicity of eyes and minds. Global networks and hyper-speed electronic transmissions present a unique medium for

communication. Information being susceptible to a myriad of viewpoints creates an extension of thought, a web of

knowledge. Our expansion of knowledge and exposure is only a simple instance of technology evolving our global

culture. Yet, as culture advances to grasp new identities of functioning amid digital technology, architecture lingers in

passivity, of form and function.

technology into process commands an innovative venue for imagining architecture. Digital tools of creation, visualization,

and navigation provide a new consciousness for design. Utilizing digital technology as a creative resource in the

investigation of design proves a new paradigm of architecture. The method expands as the digital creativity is coupled

with the intent to transcend our languished built environment. By using technology as a resource for imagination, a

unique consciousness of architecture is coupled with the very circumstances that shapes the global community.

culminates all the notion of evolving technologies and ideas through the investigation and services of design and

visualization. Computer technology offers a medium of diversity in process, form, and comprehension, questioning the

standards and values of traditional architectural practice. In the hands of a knowledgeable designer, of both architecture

and the applications of computer technology, the medium becomes a point of departure for design. This is a

transformation of the traditional situation of the computer as output to a new situation where technology collaborates

process. The focus is to carry the ideals of design invention accross all stages of architectural creation. As a

collaboration with digital technology, the primary goal of proces2 is to investigate, learn and configure, wholly, new

processes of design creation, architectural fabrication, and building construction.
