We have developed a recursive approach to computing the structural beauty of images (V), V = D * I, where D and I represent respectively the number of decomposable substructures and iterations.https://t.co/Wrie1zwPBA

@histofarch @izurietavarea @bmock A very interesting title! where to get this book? "Method shapes morphology by David Getzin" Thanks!

Not only the roofscape, but also the Nolli map is living structure with a very high degree of organic order measured by the L score (L = S * H): https://t.co/MrfnsEsVdb

[Bin Jiang @binjiangxp]

The answer is YES if we pay attention to organic order rather than mechanical order: https://t.co/MrfnsEsVdb

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

Is it possible to plan a beautiful city?

[Bin Jiang @binjiangxp]

Why it is ugly? It violates the scaling law with a very low degree of livingness. It is a sustainability problem:

The Danger of Cheap Design

(and why ugliness isn't just an aesthetic problem)

[Bin Jiang @binjiangxp]

What if the grid-like structure is changed to the Mondrian painting (Composition II)? And what if the oval-shaped mirror is changed to the 12-sided polygon? It would become more living with a higher L score value (L = S * H): https://t.co/xs8Kh97Ig4

[Building Beauty @_buildingbeauty]

What can a budding architect do in ten weeks, with a modest budget, a few builders, and a willing client? With the right attitude – a lot!

For his final project with us, our student Mayank in India transformed an ugly bathroom into an inspiring powder room.

Living versus less living bollards

The Danger of Minimalist Design

(& the death of detail)

A short thread...

[B&C Editors @BuildingsCities]

The Cartesian mechanistic worldview is essentially unable to create living cities. @binjiangxp reflects on Christopher Alexander’s (1936-2022) pursuit of living environments with a recurring notion of far more small substructures than large substructures.

Congratulations on the launching of the new journal!

[The International Society for Urban Informatics @isui_media]

The 1st #UI_Journal Editorial Board Meeting was held on May 3 2022. 40+ members from worldwide joined the meeting and actively made constructive suggestions on future development of the journal. The contributions are highly appreciated and look forward to your continued support!

[Bin Jiang @binjiangxp]

In memory of pioneering architect Christopher Alexander (1936-2022), I wrote this short essay,
reflecting on his pursuit of living structure in cities:

@arch_Bekhelifi @Dr_J_Vaughan @MDPIOpenAccess Instead of boxes, I was suggesting naturally defined substructures (any irregular shapes) for characterizing the degree of livingness or order; see our latest work: https://t.co/MrfnsEsVdb
