Visiting Scholar Katie Lloyd Thomas presents her research: In the United Kingdom, the naming and selection of building products—or ‘shopping’ on behalf of the client—only became part of the architect’s role during the vast expansion of mass manufacturing in the 1930s. These radical transformations, largely overlooked today, were enthusiastically embraced and debated by(...)

That digital tools have changed the very nature of designing and making buildings is unquestioned. Yet formal innovation and ingenuity—and the technical competence needed to achieve those ends—are not merely a function of the virtuosity of form-making. Rather, they also make evident the dramatic impact that digital capabilities have on the roles, responsibility, and(...)
