There are a dizzying array of new tools and methods available to today's architects. From high-powered computer programs to state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and complex building materials, every new technology challenges architects to reconcile it with a building's design and detailing. Details, Technology, and Form, the third volume in the ongoing AsBuilt series, features twenty-five technologically awe-inspiring projects built in the past three years. Each project is explored in detail through technical drawings, diagrams, and full-color photographs of the finished building, as well as work-in-progress material that illustrates fabrication and assembly. U.S. and Canadian projects range from an office building featuring a one-hundred-foot cantilever on its upper level supported by sixteen-foot-deep trusses to a house designed to float in the event of flooding.
Architects featured include el dorado Inc., Morphosis Architects, MOS, Polshek Partnership Architects, Renzo Piano Building Workshop, SOM, Toshiko Mori, Weiss/Manfredi, and Zaha Hadid Architects.

Davids Killory Architecture was founded in 1987. Our office is a laboratory for the exploration of new materials and technologies as well as the reinterpretation of traditional building types, the potential for landscape to influence architectural form, and the development of architecture responsive to social change. Our interest in affordable housing extends beyond its value as a rewarding civic practice to its potential to open up possibilities for social and formal innovation.
