Architecture today is dominated by digital tools.
The use of computers as a design medium has revolutionised the way ideas are developed the world over.
How have these techniques made their way into everyday practice?
What role does modelmaking play in the design process at professional practice level?
Why does the medium of modelmaking play an ever more prominent role in design?
"Modelmaking in the Digital Age" brings together individuals who have witnessed these changes first hand and offers insight into the advantages and disadvantages they bring in both professional and educational environments.
