MEANDER - Variegating Architecture

The MEANDER - Variegating Architecture design guide features the research and teachings of Ferda Kolatan and Jenny Sabin. Sabin is a member of the USA Fellows, recognizing her work in the fields of architecture and design. 


This generative design book exemplifies a new generation of research-based practices built on the shared platforms and networks that have evolved over the past two decades to focus on the production of variegated organizations. It features practices that enrich the ways in which architecture can be made, employed, and enjoyed. 


MEANDER is a full-color architecture design guide that follows the success of Architectural Geometry. It goes further into the world of generative design while working back and forth between the realm of pure research and practical application. The recent advances in computation, material intelligence, and fabrication technologies have altered the theoretical understanding of general design principles, as well as our practical approach towards architecture design and research. MEANDER - Variegating Architecture seeks to develop new opportunities for architecture and engineering software, such as GenerativeComponents, which has already proven its value for leading international design firms.
