Architectural computation is generally promoted in relation to high-tech building systems and iconic towers. FreelandBuck’s design for Earl’s Gourmet Grub is a test case in how computational architecture can enrich a small space’s everyday use. The restaurant was designed with cutting-edge technology to fit an old-world sensibility inspired by its food. Torquing ceiling surfaces and inscribed digital patterns are combined with a rich material and color palette to evoke both technological refinement and the more rustic feel of alpine landscapes and Viennese cafes. via
