Measuring, Analysing, Scripting: Architecture and Mathematics

This letter from the editor introduces Vol. 26(4) of the Nexus Network Journal: Architecture and Mathematics. This issue features research that measures, analyses, and scripts architectural forms and elements to reveal insights into celebrated examples and propose novel methods for generating buildings or components. Geographically, the research in this issue includes detailed examinations of historical buildings in China, Greece, Iran, Spain and the United Kingdom. The building types explored range from railway stations to religious structures and military facilities. The methods include surveys, generative scripting and deep learning models.
