Digital architecture - the use of computer modelling, programming, simulation, and imaging to create both virtual forms and physical structures - is increasingly popular in architecture all over the world. This book provides a report of the progress of digital architecture design in China, and is broken down into four parts - understanding of digital architecture, digital design practice, future and possibility of digital architecture, and chronology of digital architecture in the world.
