演讲题目:
从标准到非标准的标准:建筑的新生成模式
From Standard to Non-Standard Standards:New modes of production in Architecture
演讲简介:
在建筑领域,标准化的概念对建成环境产生了深远的影响。从某种意义上说,自20世纪初以来,标准化一直是所有经济发展和快速城市化的本质。然而,在过去二十年中开发的计算工具和CAD/CAM方法,为建筑师提供了一个逃避标准化要求的漏洞。机器人制造和3D打印是现代建筑师工具箱中的最新元素,承诺以相同的价格为世界带来更多的细节化。下一个重大变革已经在地平线上出现。人工智能以光速崛起,成为一项强大的新工具,并且正在颠覆我们所知的建筑世界。这次讲座探讨了从标准化解决方案向可能为艺术和工艺带来数字化转折的世界转变。从香港大学机器人制造实验室的个人研究出发,演讲深入探讨了创新项目,这些项目背离了传统的标准化方法,试图以非标准的标准提供新解决方案。
In Architecture, the concept of standardization has had a profound impact on the built environment. In a sense, standardization has been the essence of all economic developments and rapid urbanization since the early 20th century. However, computational tools and CAD/CAM methods developed in the past two decades have given architects a loophole to escape the mandate for standardization. Robotic fabrication and 3D printing are the latest ingredients in the modern toolbox of an architect, promising the world more specificity for the same price. The next big thing is already on the horizon. AI has emerged at light speed as a powerful new tool out of nowhere and is here to stay to shake up the world of Architecture as we know it. This lecture explores this transformation from standard solutions to a world that might give a renaissance to arts and crafts with a digital twist. Drawing from personal research conducted at the Robotic Fabrication Lab at HKU, the presentation delves into innovative projects that depart from traditional standardization approaches and try to offer new solutions with the aim towards non-standard Standards.
