Hyperbody projects Muscle ReConfigured and InteractiveWall are included in the chapter 'Datascapes and multi-Dimensionality' of the new boook 'The New Mathematics of Architecture' by Mark Burry and Jane Burry.
From chaos and complexity theory to topology, from optimization to datascapes: the design and construction of complex, sublime buildings that will change the way we perceive major structures.
Ever since building began, architecture has relied on mathematics to achieve visual harmony, structural integrity, and logical construction. For most of the history of building, architects have applied the principles of Euclidean geometry, the description of points, lines, and volumes according to the three axes of space.
Recently, however, digital design tools and massive computer processing power, along with an increasing interest in physics and pure mathematics, have given architects the means to describe and build spatial constructs that would have been inconceivable even ten years ago.
Weapons of the Gods, the paradoxical mathematics of contemporary architecture
