Historically, the development of the tall build-ing has been dependent on technological ad-vancements. As the continuous advancements of technology have impacted tall building de-sign and planning, the architectural profession has also changed to keep up with rapid tech-nological progress. One of the most recent re-markable technologies is the use of the com-puter to analyze complex structural systems and its ability to produce construction documents. However, the use of digital tools to generate in-novative tall building forms in architectural de-sign has not progressed at a comparable rate.

WEEK 2 JOURNAL The computational architecture design INTEREST PROPOSAL: The contrast

Project one BURI KHALIFA in Dubi.

“The tower’s organic form was de-rived from the culture and landscape of the region, strongly connecting the building to the surrounding context. ”It shows the CONTRAST texture of the building and the surrounding landscape. The Buri Tower is multi-function used building and the mainly for residential uses. It has different experimental approach. The design of the plan is inspired by the Hy-menocallis which is a desert flower.

CONTRAST

Project one PALAIS DES BEAUX ARTS in French

The Palais arts museum is combined two different buildings which one is modern form with the glass facade and the other is the original museum which is made of the stones and bricks. The two buildings have strong sense of constrast but the new build-ing has the glass reflects the old building in the facade which shows the two building are intergrated and reflected by each other.

Project one Nestle Chocolate Mueseum in Mexico City

The concept: a playful folding shape that is evocative for kids, of an origami shaped bird, or maybe a spaceship, or could it be an “alebri-je”? What might seem like a capricious form is the fruit of diligent design explorations and an intuition about what the place should express. The spectacular result is as firm as the facet-ed shapes which sustain it. There is a marked constrast between the original ship and the newer buidling, as same as the chocolate fac-tory is compared with chirldren. The building is also contrast in the color design which the outside is the red and the inside is the white, which shows the corporate of the Nestle.
