CONTEMPORARY D-DAY: TECHNOLOGY INVASION OF ARCHITECTURE IN THE 21ST CENTURY - DOES IT HERALD THE END OR THE REVIVAL OF ARCHITECTURE?

Ada Kwiatkowska

Abstrakt  

Currently, we are dealing with the invasion of intelligent technologies into architecture, threatening its existence as a discipline representing humanistic and technical values in equal measure. While the architecture of modernism managed to survive during the first mass invasion of mechanical technologies, the current invasion may mean the end of architecture. The aim of the research was to determine the impact of mechanical technologies of the industrial era and smart technologies of the post-industrial era on the development of architecture. The research was based on a critical analysis of the manifestos of futurologists and architects, and on a comparative analysis of contemporary trends at the interface of technology and architecture. The basic threats related to the invasion of technology into architecture were defined, and its consequences were presented in the form of the emergence of specific thinking strategies and design patterns of spatial structures.
