A Purple Architecture: Design in the Age of the Physical-Virtual Continuum - Hardcover

by James F. Kerestes (Author), Ebrahim Poustinchi (Author), Vahid Vahdat (Author)

A Purple Architecture is an edited collection of essays and projects investigating Purpleness, as a quality independent from the virtual and physical, the material and immaterial, and mundane and exotic. Purpleness thus serves as a theoretical framework to investigate the impacts of technological mediation in developing possible spatial scenarios through storytelling. The book aims to advance the discourse around new technological spatial mediums to blend different modes of reality through various scales and with degrees of physicality and virtuality.
