Résumé:
This is the dumbest smart book on contemporary architecture. What really is this ''technology'' that we speak of? How do we define ''intelligence''? These are just two of the questions that this book attempts to answer through the unconventional (and seemingly ironic) lens of ''dumbness.'' Historical examples in science, art, and architecture ground dumbness as a means to convey a trajectory to practice ''smarter.'' Instead of a singular authoritative vision, over fifty contributors answer the question, ''What is the dumbest, but smartest thing you’ve done?'' These unique responses provide a vivid lens into the culture of contemporary architecture and the rigor behind it.

Résumé:
Cylinders, spheres and cubes are a small handful of shapes that can be defined by a single word. However, most shapes cannot be found in a dictionary. They belong to an alternative plastic world defined by trigonometry: a mathematical world where all shapes can be described under one systematic language and where any shape can transform into another.
