ABSTRACT

The spatial order of architecture has been significantly impacted by digital architectural design and production, creating a dynamic uncertainty. This study aims to explore digital architecture from the perspective of spatial order, discussing the antidote/poison effect caused by digital technologies in architectural practice and the cultural digital changes in digital architectures. The study selected four digital architecture cases, including the (W)rapper at Los Angeles by Eric Owen Moss, Beijing Daxing International Airport by Zaha Hadid, 3D Print Niaokan Bridge by Xu Weiguo, and World Internet Conference Center by Yuan Feng. This study is hypothesising that the future special order of digital architectures will be a dynamic and balanced new spatial order. This new order includes the symbiosis of a human-machine and virtual-real hierarchy; the interactive co-existence between nature, humanity and technology; and the creative multi-immersive sharing of parametric information, built-environment resources and cultural artistic information. The evolution of spatial order of future digital architecture will be discussed in connection with the idea of the metaverse. The value of this work is its ability to inspire a broader examination of the new order of digital architectural space.

KEYWORDS

Spatial superimposition, digital technology’s antidote & poison effect, the spatial order of digital architectures, alteration of spatial order.
