Not Just Another Brick in the Wall
By Glen Taylor - Jul 20, 2008
New York based Contemporary Architecture Practice created The Wall of the Future using state-of-the-art robotic manufacturing techniques for MoMA's exhibition Home Delivery: Fabricating the Modern Dwelling which opens today.
The wall (9.6 x 7.6 x 0.8 feet) explores the possibilities of architecture in the near future combining space, structure and skin into a single form. While the title may sound a tad self-important, the concept highlights an intriguing trend we're seeing emerge in the world of architecture and generative scripting.
