6. 'The architecture of curved shapes'

Citation: Butelski, Kazimierz. The architecture of curved shapes, Nexus network journal, 2000, v.2, p.19-28

Abstract: In the 20th century, architecture remains the part of art where formal principles are very important for creators and spectators. Because form in architecture is so important, two questions arise: How can architects nowadays create forms? How can forms be described and classified? When we work only with formal analysis, we can point to an important criterion of innovation, that is, that certain forms have never before been seen in the history of architecture. In the present day, CAD/CAM technology permits us to realize any form our imaginations can create.
