Architecture for an Embryologic Housing

Greg Lynn is a passionate user of computer-controlled intelligence when designing architecture. It permits a great degree of flexibility and complex designs can be altered in a second. His evolutionary, morphogenetic sequences, which were created with the use of software from the special effects and animation industry, are capable of mutating, transforming and growing in a kind of "hyper-functional Darwinism". "Embryologic Housing" is currently one of Lynn s most important projects. It is also a manifesto for a new kind of architectonic philosophy. Greg Lynn studied at Princeton, then went on to work in the offices of Peter Eisenman and Antoine Predock, before founding his own architectural firm. He also teaches at Columbia University in New York and UCLA in Los Angeles.
