title	Adapting Digital Architecture Vocabulary to Reformulate Geometric Compositions of Islamic Facades - Case Study: Proposed Model for Islamic Façade through Digital Vocabulary
source	Hybrid Spaces of the Metaverse - Architecture in the Age of the Metaverse: Opportunities and Potentials [10th ASCAAD Conference Proceedings] Debbieh (Lebanon) [Virtual Conference] 12-13 October 2022, pp. 463-483
summary	Islamic architectural facades characterized by many distinguished vocabularies that formed its character; as arches, ornaments, al-Muqarnas and mashrabeya etc. However, during the modern era, the Islamic heritage regions faced many changes and transformations of its character, either by new buildings that were built according to modern or unplanned styles, or by random and unplanned developments. However, recently and with the beginning of the twenty first century and with the great breakthrough in the digital tools and techniques, it facilitates new horizons in the architectural form generation. Accordingly, the research focuses on how to investigate the positive impacts of digital technologies on Islamic Architecture. In addition to how to utilize the digital thoughts, vocabulary, and techniques to create and develop a heritage inspired vocabulary that can compromise with the traditional Islamic architecture theme. Through this, the research aims to achieve a systemization of digital design strategies to facilitate the generation of Islamic-inspired façade, to create a new Islamic architecture that can be applied within Islamic heritage regions to connect the modern buildings which located in these regions with the existing Islamic reference. To achieve that, the research starts with studying and discussing the main elements that formed the Islamic facades, to stand on the methods of formations of each element and its function of the Islamic façade, whether it is an intrinsic function or aesthetic function. Consequently, standing on the main digital theories that lead to new architectural vocabulary that can homogenate with Islamic vocabulary, through studying the concept of each digital theory, accordingly how it can be applied theoretically to create a modern façade with an Islamic spirit. The research ends with a case study for a proposed modern building that resembles most of the recent buildings in Al-Azhar Islamic region in Cairo, and how through applying some selected digital theories can result in developing and renovating this facade to match the heritage Islamic surrounding in a new digital way.

title	Experiential Learning of Structural Systems - Comparison of design-based and experiment-based pedagogies
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2022.2.535
source	Pak, B, Wurzer, G and Stouffs, R (eds.), Co-creating the Future: Inclusion in and through Design - Proceedings of the 40th Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2022) - Volume 2, Ghent, 13-16 September 2022, pp. 535–544
summary	This research aims to compare two experiential learning methods’ effectiveness for (1) a deeper understanding of structural behaviour, and (2) skills to design architectural forms that are structurally informed. A course was planned to investigate the effect of the type and order of the two teaching units: (1) guided experiments on a parametric design model, and (2) parametric design of a tower and custom experiments using Grasshopper and Karamba. Results indicate that the group that started with the experiments learned to ask the relevant questions by experimenting with the appropriate parameters that helped them to find the structural principles and apply them during their design phase. The group that started with the design were lost in the structural concepts and in identifying the meaningful parameters to test for. However, after the experiment was completed, this group could make a knowledge transfer. Acquisition of structures knowledge may require the experience of multiple situations while the application of this knowledge may involve selecting the relevant structural experience with the architectural form-finding process. In the future, a proposed experiential learning method will be compared with an instructive learning approach of structural systems for architecture students.

title	Co-Robotic Assembly of Nonstandard Timber Structures
source	ACADIA 2022: Hybrids and Haecceities [Proceedings of the 42nd Annual Conference of the Association of Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 979-8-9860805-8-1]. University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design. 27-29 October 2022. edited by M. Akbarzadeh, D. Aviv, H. Jamelle, and R. Stuart-Smith. 604-613.
summary	This paper presents a novel approach for the construction of nonstandard timber structures made from regionally sourced short dimensional lumber, which is enabled through human-robot collaborative assembly (HRCA). To address the research question, three main research objectives are identified and experimentally explored: 1) Characterization of a comprehensive construction process, which consists of off-site HRCA of bespoke timber sub-assemblies, 2) Development of a suitable constructive system for robotic assembly, making feasible the realization of articulated structures out of short timber elements, and 3) Incorporation of these techniques and their constraints into an integrative digital design and fabrication method and implementation of a continuous digital design-to-fabrication workflow.

title	Activating Co-Creation Methodologies of 3D Printing with Biocomposites Developed from Local Organic Wastes
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2022.1.215
source	Pak, B, Wurzer, G and Stouffs, R (eds.), Co-creating the Future: Inclusion in and through Design - Proceedings of the 40th Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2022) - Volume 1, Ghent, 13-16 September 2022, pp. 215–224
summary	Compared to the take-make-waste-oriented linear economy model, the circular model has been studied since the 1980s. Due to consumption-oriented lifestyles along with having a tendency of considering waste materials as trash, studies on sustainable materials management (SMM) have remained at a theoretical level or created temporary and limited impacts. To ensure SMM supports The European Green Deal, there is a necessity of developing top-down and bottom-up strategies simultaneously, which can be metaphorized as digging a tunnel from two different directions to meet in the middle of a mountain. In parallel with the New European Bauhaus concept, this research aims to create a case study for boosting bottom-up and data-driven methodologies to produce short-loop products made of bio-based biocomposite materials from local food & organic wastes. The Architecture departments of two universities from different countries collaborated to practice these design democratization methodologies using data transfer paths. The 3D printable models, firmware code, and detailed explanation of working with a customized 3D printer paste extruder were shared using online tools. Accordingly, the bio-based biocomposite recipe from eggshell, xanthan gum, and citric acid, which can be provided from local shops, food & organic wastes, was investigated concurrently to enhance its printability feature for generating interior design elements such as a vase or vertical gardening unit. While sharing each step from open-source platforms with adding snapshots and videos allows further development between two universities, it also makes room for other researchers/makers/designers to replicate the process/product. By combining modern manufacturing and traditional crafting methods with materials produced with DIY techniques from local resources, and using global data transfer platforms to transfer data instead of products themselves, this research seeks to unlock the value of co-creative design practices for SMM.

summary	In the summer of 2018, our collaboration was awarded a University Design Fellowship from the Exhibit Columbus organization to design, fabricate, and build a large pavilion in Columbus, Indiana as part of a biannual contemporary architecture exhibition. Our proposal for the competition was a pavilion that would double as an ecological education center. Our inspiration for this program was triggered in part by our reading of Jane Bennett’s materialist philosophy outlined in her book Vibrant Matter (2009). Through Bennett’s lens, our design rendered our site’s context as an animate field, replete with pre-existing material composites that we wanted to celebrate through a series of displays, information boards, and artificial lighting. In this, the installation would feature samples of local plants, minerals, and rocks, indigenous to Southern Indiana.

summary	The paper discusses how catenary geometry was used to define parameters for knitting and mycelium, and how they were applied to the design of a 3D knit preform. In addition, the paper evaluates the success of the bespoke growth chamber fabricated for this research. The growth chamber was designed to support the hanging preform as a catenary vault during growing and to optimize mycelium growth via environmental controls. Findings of the research highlight the significance of computational methods to enable the design and construction of biohybrid textile systems that move from an assimilation of discrete material elements with defined boundaries to a cohesive technological approach.

summary	Hybrids & Haecceities seeks novel approaches to design and research that dissolve binary conditions and inherent hierarchies in order to embrace new modes of practice. Haecceities describe the qualities or properties of objects that define them as unique. Concurrently, Hybrids are entities with characteristics enhanced by the process of combining two or more elements with different properties. In concert, these terms offer a provocation toward more inclusive and specific forms of computational design. Hybrids & Haecceities aligns with a fundamental shift away from abstract generalized models of production toward greater degrees of customization at unprecedented scales, made possible by the Fourth Industrial Revolution. With greater reliance on cyber-physical systems, this shift supports more diverse and considered forms of embodiment and participation in the built environment. Conversely, the design and construction industries have profound global effects with significant political, economic, and environmental impacts. The urgent need to decarbonize buildings, and at the same time, provide equitable infrastructure to communities at risk, places responsibility on the design disciplines to form new collaborations in the effort to address today’s social and ecological crises.

summary	This paper describes an improved data collection methodology in the context of clay 3D printing that integrates structured light scanning tech- nology. The ultimate goal is to use this data for toolpath calibration during the next step of the research. The integrated process measures and then addresses the deflections caused by the successive build-up of clay layers that cause changes in stiffness across the lower printed layers, distortions and shifting of clay beads caused by extrusion pressure and nozzle maneuvering, and air gaps in the clay mix that affect the material flow rate.

title	Application of Immersive Technologies in the Early Design Stage in Architecture Education: A Systematic Review
source	Hybrid Spaces of the Metaverse - Architecture in the Age of the Metaverse: Opportunities and Potentials [10th ASCAAD Conference Proceedings] Debbieh (Lebanon) [Virtual Conference] 12-13 October 2022, pp. 313-330
summary	This paper reviews existing research on the use of immersive technologies, Virtual Reality in particular, in various stages of the architectural design process. Nine research papers were systematically reviewed and analyzed. They were filtered down by using the keywords: ‘Virtual/Augmented Reality, Architectural Education, Gravity Sketch, Unity and Virtual Environments’ from two main databases that focus on digital and computer-aided design research: Cumulative Index about publications in Computer Aided Architectural Design (CuminCAD) and Elsevier's abstract and citation database (Scopus). The selection of papers was filtered down based on relevant approaches which investigate architectural design, creative thinking and teaching methodology using immersive technologies. Another criterion applied to the filtering process of the research papers is the exploration and integration process of new tools and overlapping external software to aid the existing workflow of the user. Our findings explore the evolution of immersive tools to highlight the advantages and disadvantages of virtual reality-based software and hardware, as a creative development tool in the field of education and practice. This paper also proposes a novel teaching methodology that incorporates immersive technologies in the early design phase of architectural education.

summary	The hybridization of architectural, biological and robotic agencies Situated in the field of architectural biodesign, InterspeciesForms explores a closer relationship between the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus and the designer in the creation of form. The intention of hybridizing mycelia’s agency of growth with architectural design intention is to generate novel, non-indexical crossbred designed outcomes that evolve preconceived notions of architectural form. Mycelium are threadlike fibrous root systems made up of hyphae, that form the vegetative part of a fungus (Jones 2020). Known as the hackers of the wood wide web (Simard 1997) mycelia form complex symbiotic relationships with other species that inhabit our earth. Michael Lim states “Fungi redefine resourcefulness, collaboration, resilience and symbiosis” (Lim 2022, p. 14). When wandering around the forest to connect with other species or searching for food, fungi form elaborate and entangled networks by spreading their hyphal tips. Shown in Figure 1, this living labyrinth results in the aesthetic formation of an intricate web. Due to the organisms ability to determine the most effective direction of growth, communicate with its surrounding ecosystem, and connect with other species, fungi are indeed an intelligent species with a unique aesthetic that must not be ignored. In drawing on these concepts, I refer to the organism’s ability to search for, tangle, and digest its surroundings as ‘mycelia agency of growth’. It is this specific behavioral characteristic that is the focus of this research, with which I, as the architect, set out to co-create and hybridize with.

summary	Which kind of imagination do we need for the future of our planet? In the past 150 years, we have completely transformed our biosphere. Today we have arrived at points of no return in global warming! The temperature of the Arctic Ocean will increase by 3-5°C by mid-century. This will lead to disastrous ocean acidification, sea-level rise, and worst of all the thawing of the permafrost that will release 1 trillion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. In this paper, we argue that building with biology will be the most important force to transform our planet. Since 2006, Synthetic Biology (SynBio) has surfaced as the fastest-growing technology in human history. SynBio involves emerging techniques that allow us to design, edit, and engineer all kinds of living organisms. In this paper, we elaborate on its potential development in growing infrastructures and its impacts on architectural thinking.

summary	3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) currently dominates the scene of digital fabrication with concrete. 3DCP can be utilized on-site or in prefabrication setups. While prefabrication with 3DCP allows for more complex construction elements, it also requires the design for connections and assembly. In the context of prefabrication using 3DCP, this paper illustrates the state of research in the design, construction, and assembly of 3D printed components. It proposes segmentation and fabrication strategies to produce horizontal and vertical structural members of a column-slab building system following the typology of mushroom slabs.

summary	Urban Building Energy Model (UBEM) approaches help analyze the energy performance of urban areas and predict the impact of different retrofit strategies. However, UBEM approaches require a high level of expertise and entail time-consuming simulations. These limitations hinder their successful application in designing and planning urban areas and supporting the city policy-making sector. Hence, it is necessary to investigate alternatives that are easy-to-use, automated, and fast. Surrogate models have been recently used to address UBEM limitations; however, they are case-specific and only work properly within specific parameter boundaries. We propose a new surrogate modeling approach to predict the energy performance of urban areas by integrating Algorithmic Design, UBEM, and Machine Learning. Our approach can automatically model and simulate thousands of building archetypes and create a broad surrogate model capable of quickly predicting annual energy profiles of large urban areas. We evaluated our approach by applying it to a case study located in Lisbon, Portugal, where we compare its use in model-based optimization routines against conventional UBEM approaches. Results show that our approach delivers predictions with acceptable accuracy at a much faster rate.

summary	The main objective of this research is to develop a method that can integrate responsive and interactive architecture through the application of soft robotics on a façade. To achieve this objective, a review of the main concepts, adaptive architecture (responsive-interactive) and soft robotics was first carried out. Secondly, recent studies and research that speak of the application of soft robotics in architecture are analyzed. With the knowledge acquired in the analyzes and reference studies, together with the help of programming and computational design tools, a scalable physical prototype was developed that manages to integrate both types of adaptive behaviors (responsive-interactive) in a single hybrid robotic system (soft-rigid), demonstrating the potential of soft robotics in architecture, in this case being applied to be sensitive and act on changes in temperature produced by solar radiation.

title	Efficacy of Gamification on Introductory Architectural Education: a literature review
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2022.2.553
source	Pak, B, Wurzer, G and Stouffs, R (eds.), Co-creating the Future: Inclusion in and through Design - Proceedings of the 40th Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2022) - Volume 2, Ghent, 13-16 September 2022, pp. 553–564
summary	Due to their recent popularity and success in fields such as engineering and business, gamification and by extension game design principles demonstrate the ability to teach complex, multi-disciplinary skills in an engaging, entertaining, and effective way. Architectural education especially introductory architectural education is a foundational and fundamental part of a budding architecture student’s career and oftentimes requires the understanding of dynamic systems, spatial reasoning, and experiential learning. The paper posits that gamification and game design principles can utilize certain components such as augmented reality, narrative design, and fun in order to create tools, gamify existing curriculum, and increase retention, engagement, and mastery of the difficult high-tech skillsets required of introductory architects. The paper focuses on reviewing and systematically analyzing research on gamification in education. In particular, it focuses on systematically reviewing and analyzing data from multiple relevant case studies chosen based on the application of technology such as augmented reality, the integration of game design, and the feasibility of gamification in educational environments. This data is examined based on feasibility, accessibility, and effects on information retention and the findings are outlined in a comparative table of methods, tools, and technologies organized based on their suitability. Ultimately, the paper aims to establish a framework for gamifying introductory modules in architectural education and hopes to create a future architectural augmented reality game meant to utilize gamification to help new architectural students.

summary	This paper shares KPF Cloud Tools, a platform for using Rhino Compute (McNeel’s REST API for RhinoCommon and Grasshopper) to run a library of Grasshopper tools through a cloud server via a Rhino plugin with a procedurally generated user interface, making it quick to deploy new tools (Robert McNeel & Associates 2010). We describe the professional challenges that the KPF Cloud Tools platform solves, document the technical implementation of the platform, and illustrate its benefit through the impact on a large architectural practice.
