DIGITAL TECTONICAL DEMONSTRATIONS As architectural researchers explore ways to exploit digital technologies in design and construction, their computers are shifting roles. They are not only representational devices but are becoming instruments for simulation and fabrication. Professors Brad Bell, Andrew Vrana, and Joe Meppelink have been experimenting with the potential of these digital techniques through a variety of research projects conducted with students over the past year. — Editor

MODELING THE SWISS RE TOWER The design for the Swiss Re Tower by Foster and Partners draws on advances in digital technologies to develop ideas that we first explored in the Climatroffice design with Buckminster Fuller in the early 1970s.
