A futuristic vision of architecture through the thought of Hani Rashid (Asymptote Architecture)

The twenty-first century came with new concepts for the design process, due to the impact of the digital revolution and the progress of computer applications. Accordingly, the new distinctive features of digital architecture emerged, modularity was rejected, merging between interior and exterior and extent to which building adapts to the surrounding environment, The building is no longer just a regular structure, but has become a living body, as the designer found the tool through which he can express his ideas, as important as their complexity.

Research problem:

- Not benefiting enough from the technological development accompanying the digital revolution through Hani Rashid thought.

- The local architecture lack to integrate culture, technology, society and surrounding environment, which resulted in rigid buildings.

Research aims:

- Benefiting from the technological development accompanying the digital revolution through Hani Rashid thought.

- Improve the design thought by linking local architecture with the surrounding environment, technology and society.

The research results were applied to the Radio and Television Union building. Which emphasized the need to work on finding a link between building and surrounding environment through an interactive relationship integrating (culture, technology and society), and Asymptote Architecture approach is based on the building performance and its spatial form is what drives its architectural meaning, so the buildings reflect the surrounding environmental and cultural standards, Which made it an innovative futuristic approach in developing architectural solutions, and digital applications mean linking the building with the environment, culture, the spirit of the age and its new requirements.
