Emerging Technologies and Housing Prototypes is an extensive guide to new materials and technologies being used and developed for the building industry. Featuring prototypes already in the first stages of manufacture alongside more conceptual speculative designs, Emerging Technologies is a mesmerizing glimpse into the future of architecture.

Accessibly written and comprehensively illustrated, Emerging Technologies is the result of an investigation carried out by the Berlage Institute of Architecture in Rotterdam. The book comprises profiles of materials and technologies that are at the very forefront of innovation in the building sector. Details of their properties and potential applications are included as are dazzling photographs and computer generated images showing the materials featured, as well as examples of their in situ use.

The book includes a plethora of entries from manufacturers at the cutting edge of their industries, including General Electric Plastics, Dupont Displays, Panelite, Pittsburgh Corning and 3M. In addition, contact details of the manufacturers are provided, making this a practical pocket-sized guide.
