Abstract
Conceiving buildings as adaptive architectural systems constitutes a promising strategy for meeting the increasing economic, ecological and programmatic demands placed on the built environment. This approach has so far been primarily investigated in the context of small-scale or uninhabitable structures. The concept of adaptive load-bearing structures, however, presents a strategy that allows tapping the potentials of
adaptivity in the context of large-scale architecture. Moreover, it enables – and even requires – the development of genuinely adaptive structural morphologies beyond prevailing typologies. This, in turn, opens up hitherto unknown opportunities for architectural design. Informed by the participation in the design of an adaptive high-rise building, the research presented proposes an integrative design process, on the basis
of agent-based computational design tools, that enables architects to interactively explore the architectural design space of adaptive structures within interdisciplinary design teams.
