This is the same technique that the game The Sentinel  used to generate 10,000 Solid Rendered 3D levels on the Spectrum 48k in 1986.

spime:

Subversion: a procedurally-generated city to infiltrate uses a programming technique where pseudorandom number generators are fed into an algorithm, and that then cranks out a near-infinite amount of content. Streets, lamp-posts, rooms, buildings, and anything else that a city needs can be assembled in a relatively short space of time just from a string of numbers.

Another title called .kkrieger used procedural generation for almost its entire mechanics. By coding an algorithm that can design textures, level layouts, models, animations and sound, it managed to fit an entire first-person shooter videogame into just 96kb — about 1/70 of the size of an MP3.

Salt Point House, Hudson Valley NY 2007

via // cozar: unknownskywalker: H House © Wiel Arets Architects

Made for a couple, the H-House is located in a leafy area of Maastricht. The clients are a dancer and an actor, as well as landscape architects. Behind the site is a formal garden, which is occasionally open to the public.

The interior of the home is primarily a single loft-like space with a central mezzanine. Two smaller independent volumes – the entrance and bathroom – are adjacent to this main volume. Terraces define the position and shape of the house, with each terrace having its own separate character.

AFGH - Housing for architects and artists, Zurich 2004.

Architect’s and artist’s apartment house at the foot of the Üetliberg. The task was to create reasonably-priced residential space with high standards of living comfort for four differently sized parties. In the processs, each party was to profit as much as possible on the one hand from the 3,000 m2 south-facing environs, and on the other from the north-facing view of the city. This determined an unconventional and complex internal organisation of the building. All four apartments are accessible via a two-storey entrance hall, each of them having their own internal staircase of one or two floors. In principle the double-storey apartments and the two roof apartments are encapsulated in each other so that the quality of the four-sided building is fully exploited. The most striking characteristic of the galvanised sheet-metal façade is the differentiation of the form of the window openings on the north and south sides.

Milk by Ffunction

New packaging by Audree Lapierre of FFunction, a Montreal-based data visualization firm:

“Our concept was to design a packaging using nutritional facts about the food product. For the milk carton, we used the four sides to inform about the caloric ratio, nutrience balance completeness, ingredients and amount per serving. The diagrams and data visualizations give important and useful information. For example, they quickly show if a food product has a higher proportion of fat. The data visualizations say more than a regular nutritional facts label. For example, ingredients are visually linked to their corresponding components (carbohydrate, total fat, proteins, sodium, others). In the case of a bag of chips, you would immediately see that it contains lots of ingredients without nutritive value. Nutritional information becomes the main goal of the packaging, while still carrying a powerful branding by combining an expressive form with useful information.”
