Definitions

PROTOTYPE: This experimental pre-production design is a close to de designer’s original concept as you are going to get.  Unique or outrageous prototypes of famous pieces are typically sold at high-end galleries and auctions, and command stratospheric prices. (DWELL Magazine)

GENERATIVE DESIGN: Generative design systems are aimed at creating new design processes that produce spatially novel yet efficient and buildable designs through exploitation of current computing and manufacturing capabilities”. (Kristina Shea)

ORIGINAL VINTAGE: Object produced by a licensed manufacturer. Licensing agreements vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and can be for a lifetime or a finite period. (DWELL Magazine)

PREFAB: Precast because it allows simplification of the construction process, especially important with low budgets. It's primitive architecture: direct, essential, a synthesis." (Architect Jose María Sáez)
