What most differentiates the Discrete from previous architectural paradigms? Architect and theorist Philippe Morel, who co‐founded Paris office EZCT Architecture & Design Research, examines related evolutions in theory and practice. The key, as he sees it, is a break away from anthropomorphism and rationalism, resulting in a truly computational architecture that is free from human‐imposed parameters.
