Introductory essay / Giuseppa Di Cristina -- Project presentations from issues of Architectural Design. Folding in Architecture (focusing on the assumption of the mathematical notion of topology as a fundamental element of curved, folding, self-generating, and dynamic architecture -- an architecture of change capable of creating complex time-space relations). Hypersurface Architecture (focusing on hyper-surface architecture, which is a complex hybrid condition of the traditional interrelation among categories such as inside/outside, ground/building, organic/inorganic, structure/ornament, etc.). Sci-Fi Architecture (focusing on topological space in architecture -- an alternative space inspired by science.). Integrating Architecture (focusing on topological shapes, which are an expression of an extra-disciplinary condition and bring architecture into a wider circuit of cultural events). Architects in Cyberspace (focusing on the development of computer technology which has enhanced the topological exploration of architectural form -- the transfer of virtual space to real space enables a new way of conceiving space in architecture).
