Some insights on Materials Research: Immaterial/Ultramaterial

I was recently reminded of a great book about materials research: Immaterial/Ultramaterial: Architecture, Design, and Materials edited by Toshiko Mori.

The book discusses different types of material research being conducted based on types such as edge, surface, substance, and phenomena.

The book also transcribes round table discussions between some well-known architects regarding each subject.

There are two copies of the book on reserve at the Kranzberg Art and Architecture Library. Check it out if you get a chance!
