Abstract
El nivel de posibilidades de experimentación en diseño y construcción que permiten las tecnologías digitales no tiene precedentes. Este artículo argumenta que las tecnologías digitales y la fabricación digital apoyan una reconexión con los materiales y la materialidad, al mismo tiempo que facilitan la exploración de ideales utópicos en un contexto de diseño. Se discuten ejemplos notables de proyectos profesionales y académicos que adoptan un enfoque centrado en lo material, y que fueron realizados gracias al uso de tecnologías digitales y de fabricación digital.
Abstract
Digital technologies allow for an unprecedented level of design experimentation and construction possibilities. The article presents the argument that digital technologies and fabrication support a re-connection to materials and materiality, whilst facilitating the exploration of utopian ideals within a design context. Recent exemplars in the fields of architecture and academia that embrace a materials-first approach to innovative projects made possible by digital technologies and digital fabrication are discussed.
