![[WIND]STUDIO REVIEW / Prof. Bradley remarks](http://www.livearchitecture.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/msu0031-310x150.png)
Prof. Bradley on Digital FABRICation Material – Fabric: Given any design project I believe it is essential to not only understand its limits through quantities (MOE, tensile strength, compressive strength) but to also have a tactile connection to the material being used within the design. Fabric, as is generally the impression, is a somewhat two-dimensional [...]
