Now We See Now

Now We See Now chronicles the projects and findings of a firm that is charting bold new directions in generative design and other intersections of science and architecture.

In the context of massive and accelerating change - in technology, science, climate, and society - the nature of architectural design is also evolving and coming to life in new ways.

New York-based office The Living has developed a unique design approach that explores projects through the application of new technologies, materials, and the growing field of generative design (design that uses software to emulate nature's evolutionary processes). These methods are futuristic, even utopian, but also raw and immediate in their application of hands-on prototyping and testing through making. The Living addresses urgent issues through reframing design with today's tools.

For an era where rapid change is the norm, The Living demonstrates how future design practices can embrace uncertainty and generate surprising solutions to tomorrow's challenges.
