CAADFutures was
set up under Dutch law in 1985 with three founding members; Tom Maver,
Rik Schijf, and Harry Wagter with the purpose of
promoting, through international conferences and publications, the advancement of Computer
Aided Architectural Design in the service of those concerned with the quality of the built
environment. The Housing Ministry of the Netherlands Government provided initial capital
of dfl 40,000 (appr. 18,000 euro).
The mission of the CAADFutures foundation
can be stated as follows:
-
to promote research interactions and
collaborations between researchers, including PhD students and their
supervisors, and to provide a platform for communication among
researchers in the of CAAD
-
to play an active role in the
dissemination of such progress to the scientific architectural community
and the architectural practice
-
to provide a platform of the highest
scientific level in the field of CAAD, and to promote and support this
level internationally through the organisation of a bi-annual conference
which rotates world-wide.
