ABSTRACT

We live in an era of renewed urban concentration and urban density via high-rise structures remains a primary agenda. However, it is crucial to understand the societal forces that drive concentration in centres: the insatiable communication requirements of our Post-fordist Network Society. In contrast to the prior era of Fordism/Modernism, this implies that urban intensification is not only a matter of density, but crucially also a matter of mixity and communicative intensification. Current agglomeration economies are much more economies of scope and communicative interaction rather than economies of scale and logistics. This has momentous consequences for the high rise typologies that are called for.

Patrik Schumacher is principal of Zaha Hadid Architects. He joined Zaha Hadid in 1988. In 1996 he founded the Design Research Laboratory at the Architectural Association where he continues to teach. Since 2007 he has been promoting “Parametricism” as epochal style for the 21st century.
