Kurzbeschreibung
This issue of Architectural Design explores the creation, materialisation and theorisation of some of the world's most significant and spectacularly patterned spaces. It assesses how and why the use of patterns as new critical, experimental, sustainable and active forms of spatial and organisational systems are shaping the futures and developments of architecture.
