ABSTRACT
In today’s design methodologies in architecture and urban design, we normally attempt to anticipate all current and future design requirements and potential changes for buildings prior to construction and endeavor to resolve all issues in a single (relatively static) solution. However, this solution may not always be able to respond to ongoing radical population growth and environmental changes. Moreover, the physical scale of buildings and the complexity involved in building programs have been increasing to unprecedented levels. In such conditions, increased use of process-based fourdimensional design strategies (space + time) can be anticipated.
