Dezeen and MINI Frontiers: popular software packages are influencing the way new buildings look says Matthew Plummer-Fernandez, who calls on architects to develop their own code rather than using “off-the-shelf” solutions (+ movie).
“So much of the aesthetics [of a building] is inherited from the software without you realising it,” Plummer-Fernandez claims. “You can almost spot what sort of software applications have been used for a particular building.”
Much contemporary architecture could be considered the product of “a sort of composite authorship between the software and person using it,” he adds.
“There are some algorithms that visually you’d recognise, like voronoi or fractals,” he says. “And then there’s the person behind that interface trying to make their own visual language, and somehow the artefacts become a marriage of the two.”
According to Plummer-Fernandez, it is possible to “trace the software origins” of parametric forms created by programs such as Grasshopper, a plugin for popular computer-aided design application Rhino.
“These algorithms you work with can have a very strong cultural character,” he says. “There are some algorithms that visually you would immediately recognise.”
He believes it would be more interesting if architects created new shapes using code they developed themselves.
“I think it’s fertile area to be exploring,” he says. “How can you, as a designer, produce your own software rather than use off-the-shelf software?”
Much of Plummer-Fernandez’s work explores how algorithms can create new forms. His Digital Natives project (pictured above) consisted of a series of vessels created by algorithmically distorting 3D scans of everyday objects.
For the Dezeen and MINI Frontiers exhibition he created a service that automatically generated unique 3D-printable driving companions for visitors based on information pulled from their Twitter feed.
The exhibition took place at designjunction during London Design Festival from 17 to 21 September 2014.
Dezeen and MINI Frontiers is a year-long collaboration with MINI exploring how design and technology are coming together to shape the future.

Dans cette vidéo nommée « What’s up Hong Kong ? » on peut suivre le duo russe Vitaliy Raskalov et Vadim Makhorov durant leur voyage à Hong Kong. Ce qui a l’air d’un simple documentaire se transforme vite en furieuse escapade dans le coeur de la mégalopole et sur le toit des gratte-ciels, s’achevant par le piratage d’un panneau d’affichage géant. À découvrir en vidéo.

Pour présenter sa collection d’écharpes graphiques et très colorées Blazon, la designer anglaise Natasha Coverdale a pensé à réaliser une série de photos tropicales. Les oiseaux les plus exotiques portent les étoles qui leur correspondent le mieux, en respectant les couleurs de leurs becs et leurs plumages. Des écharpes parfaites pour égayer son automne.
It’s called Avo and it’s the first truly self-maintaining tank! Its unique filtration system creates a balanced ecosystem where the plants, fish and bacteria work together and thrive. It’s so effective in fact, the prototype has been going strong for 18 months without a cleaning and still has healthy fish, plants and clear, clean water! Lots of extras, including a discreet heater, magnetic color-changing light, and modular plant pods make it not only the easiest for owners to care for, but the happiest place for fish! The vid is a MUST-WATCH so hit the jump!

Combine Evolutive Labs’ incredible RhinoShield Screen Protector with their latest product, the RhinoShield Crash Guard and your precious iPhone 5/6/6+ will be battle-ready! Exceeding military standard impact protection and absorption, the ultra-slim bumper can withstand the most damage a user could possibly do while simultaneously reflecting the original sleek design of the iPhone… in other words, no bulk! Watch the cringe-worthy tests for both and you’ll be sold!
The key to the bumpers strength is in the “honeycomb” pattern that lines the inside lining of the case. When combined with the new polymer blend, this feature adds another 10-15% to the material’s impact absorption effectiveness.
