Greg Lynn is an American architect, philosopher, and science-fiction writer who advocates increased used of computer-aided design to produce irregular, biomorphic architectural forms. He is credited with coining the term ‘blob architecture’ based on his work with a design software known by the acronym BLOB, meaning ‘Binary Large Objects’.

Lynn is one of the forerunners in exploring the possibilities in digital fabrication. He has taught at Columbia Graduate School of Architecture Planning and Preservation, ETH Zurich, and the University of Applied Arts Vienna, among others. He was profiled by “Time” magazine in their projection of 21st century innovators in the field of architecture and design.
