Abstract
Situated at the nexus of the environments of architectural design and architectural construction, this paper explores the relationship architects have with the building site. An architect’s primary output is the drawing, but in order to become an “expressive instruction” during its use at the building site, architectural drawings are augmented and/or subverted via a connected system of control, communication(s) and fuzzy logic during the translation to construction. The paper will therefore answer the question: How does an Architect adopt notions of control, communication and fuzzy logic during the construction of an architectural project? Three historical examples are used as vehicles to probe the meanings of control, communication and fuzzy logic in architectural production.
