This book examines the key role of the digital image in architecture over four decades – in the process of digitising knowledge in theory and practice – as well as its influence on architectural design and visualisation: the transition from the analogue to the digital age is analysed on the basis of 51 design visualisations, from hand drawings to photomontage to computer renderings, in order to illustrate how architecture has been impacted by digital methods and media.
'Architecture Transformed' is the result of a collaboration between the Deutsches Dokumentationszentrum für Kunstgeschichte (DDK) – Bildarchiv Foto Marburg and the Chair of Architecture and Visualization at Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg as part of the German Research Foundation program entitled 'The Digital Image.'
