Almost no other discipline defi nes the world of tomorrow more than architecture. That's why architects and professional planners, builders and companies are already defi ning future building parameters today - to meet the developments and challenges of tomorrow. This publication brings together different voices about the future of construction, which, from the perspective of experts and researchers, largely determines discourse on the subject. Economic, political and demo- graphic developments are also taken into consideration, while issues concerning ener- gy and design are discussed along with ad- vanced manufacturing processes. In their essays, each author presents scien- tific research and experience, culminating in a colourful kaleidoscope and a vision of the future.
