Abstract
AbstractTom Verebes, a co‐director of the Architectural Association's Design Research Laboratory (DRL), writes about the programme's recent research in generative and parametric‐based software, as well as the actualisation of these innovations through automated fabrication technologies. One example is the DRL's recent initiative to collaborate with Gehry Technologies as a means of using an experimental academic environment to test professional design software applications currently in development. As Verebes shows, this integration extends into his own collaborative design office, ocean D, one of the surviving branches of the original OCEAN network that emerged in the early 1990s (discussed elsewhere in the issue by Michael Hensel). For Verebes, as for Brett Steele (also featured in this publication), academic research serves as a laboratory for the production of new practices. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
