Abstract

NET .LAB is the design research project carried out by the team of Ibraheem Ammash, Jimena Araiza, Maria Loreto Flores and Ahmad Sukkar, for the March Design Research Laboratory (DR L) at the Architectural Association School of Architecture, between 2004 and 2006.This research explores how algorithms can be applied parametrically in order to generate architectural spaces, articulating a variety of social systems, scales and program requirements. The application of the selected tool, the Voronoi Diagram brought two main challenges for the research:first, how the mathematical tool could inform the design, and second, how to complement the outputs with the designers will. With this purpose, the research involved several digital and physical experiments, in which the architect’s role was to articulate design logics andexplore a new range of formal possibilities rather than modelling a unique form.
