summary	Computer technology and CAD are about to change radically the thousands of years of tradition of the architect's work. We are leaving behind the old method of drawing by hand, replacing the pencil with a stylus for pointing elements of mathematical models of projects. We are changing over from two dimensional to three dimensional design. Decisive for the architect to achieve a successful outcome has always been and will always be the visualisation of the project right from its early stages. There is a trend in our time and a risk in the new technology of fragmenting our work and making it more abstract. The new technology is based on the old one and in the beginning its user still has the habits of the old. Therefore the visualisation in present CAD systems and three dimensional design is based on the old plan projections; axonometrics and perspectives. However, there is an essentially better way which happens also to be natural to the new technology and simple to realize using it. This is the spherical projection.

summary	Even though computer simulation of environmental factors and manufacturing technologies have experienced a fast development, architectural work-flows that can take advantage of the possibilities created by these developments have been left behind and architectural design processes have not evolved at the same rate. This paper presents a design to fabrication workflow that explores data driven design to improve performance of facades, implementing for this purpose computational tools to handle environmental data complexity and proposes robotic fabrication technologies to facilitate façade components fabrication.

summary	The growing role of robotic systems in various fields, including architecture calls for a more accessible and adaptable control solutions. This paper introduces the Blender Interactive Robot Control Tool (BIRT), an open-source toolkit designed to simplify hardware integration, motion control, tool pathing, and interfacing with robotic arms using an Internet of Things (IoT) approach. BIRT combines the precision of offline programming with the adaptability inherent in online programming. It comprises a Blender interface, a Python communication abstraction layer, and an IoT hardware integration interface. This toolkit seeks to simplify the integration of sensors and actuators, offer an interactive approach to tool pathing, explore non-traditional approaches to robot control, and enhance affordability. Three separate yet interconnected tools are developed and tested as part of BIRT, each dealing with a different aspect of the system. This research contributes to the field of architectural robotics by proposing a solution to make robotics more accessible and adaptable to varying operational demands.

summary	In design courses in Argentina, “enchinchada” (“thumbtacking”) is the name given to the educational tool used for assessment of students’ work. Every student’s assignment is pinned around the classroom for students to enable, students and teachers to join into a formative dialogue thought observation and reflexion. This work presents the potential of IT in relation to the “enchinchada”. It outlines a new use of a digital wall, and recovers and enriches this practice using a free cloud app, Popplet. The experience was carried out at the Universidad de Buenos Aires in 2013 with students of fashion design and textile design.

title	A Robotic Fabrication Methodology for Dovetail and Finger Jointing: An Accessible & Bespoke Digital Fabrication Process for Robotically-Milled Dovetail & Finger Joints
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2017.456
source	ACADIA 2017: DISCIPLINES & DISRUPTION [Proceedings of the 37th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-96506-1] Cambridge, MA 2-4 November, 2017), pp. 456- 463
summary	Since the advent of industrialized processes in modern construction industries, the development of and relationship between computer-aided tools of design and computer-controlled tools of fabrication has steadily yielded new and innovative construction methodologies. Whilst industry has adopted many of these innovations for use by highly efficient machines and flexible processes, their operation is often highly dependent on industrial scales of production, and thus often inaccessible for small-scale, bespoke and affordable application. The prototype integrated joint milling methodology, case study and open-source software plugin ‘Dove’ presented in this paper, explores the efficacy of algorithmic processes in dynamically generating complex tooling paths and machine code for fabrication of bespoke dovetail and finger joints on a 6-axis industrial robot. The versatility, speed and precision of 6-axis robotic milling, allows us to liberate the efficiency, integrity and aesthetic of the dovetail and finger joint types from traditional application, and apply them to new architectures involving mass-customisation, complex form, and diverse materialities. In the development of full-immersion milling toolpaths and back-face filleting techniques that drastically reduce cutting times, tool path complexity and material waste, this study seeks to build upon past and current research by proposing a comparatively simple, efficient and more intuitive approach to robotically-fabricated integrated jointing for application at a variety of scales.

summary	Fractals, in connection with the Theory of Catastrophes and Chaos, present the possibility of different model for a methodology of the investigation of the current culture. In this sense, the cultural field, taken as a modificable system, allows us a new interpretation of emergent cultural phenomena: artistic, scientific and philosophical works, which interact within the intellectual field, throught a rhizomatic network where the sense of fractals in found in every scale in a constant fusion and metamorphosis between the Arts, Sience and Philosophy.

title	Urban Analysis and Space Syntax Theory: study and mapping of the city of Juiz de Fora, Brazil
source	SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 602-608
summary	This paper is a result of a research that uses the Space Syntax Theory for analysis of the city of Juiz de Fora, Brazil. After elaborating the axial map, based on data collection available by the City Hall, some analysis of the city were made using the syntactic measures: Integration HH, Mean Depth and Total Depth. The focus of the analysis was on the central area of the city, called "Central Triangle". As a result, the analyzes make it possible to identify that the initial urban center remains as the point of convergence of several urban areas of the city, consolidating itself as an area with great potential.

title	DATA MODELING OF BUILDINGS WITH BMXML
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2003.533
source	Digital Design [21th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9541183-1-6] Graz (Austria) 17-20 September 2003, pp. 533-540
summary	XML (extensible markup language) is emerging as a significant tool not only to model data but also to facilitate the seamless sharing of data between multiple domains. Therefore it can be quite powerful in modeling building data that must often be shared between large numbers of professionals. The focus of this study is how to use this paradigm in structuring spatial and component based building data with the intention to use it in the analysis and simulation of the performance of buildings. The framework developed by the authors consists of three components. An XML structure (bmXML) for storing building data, a VBA-AutoCAD-Application for generating the XML files (bmGenerator) and a JAVA-Application which reads the bmXML data and prepares the information for simulation purposes. This paper primarily focuses on theVBA-AutoCADApplication.

title	Online Database for Structural Details – DeTra
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2003.373
source	Connecting >> Crossroads of Digital Discourse [Proceedings of the 2003 Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design In Architecture / ISBN 1-880250-12-8] Indianapolis (Indiana) 24-27 October 2003, pp. 373-381
summary	DeTra is a research project that arose from the question: “How is it possible to assist students and professionals in architecture, dealing with structural details?” Our solution is a structural detail database, which assists by presenting example solutions of similar designs. This research was conducted in two overlapping parts. The first part of the research included the definition of a structure and a language to describe structural details—flexible enough to enable complex computer based queries, simple enough to be understandable. Major problems were the inclusion of vague terms, different meanings for the same word, and different words for the same fact. The second part was to create internet-based computer software, which utilizes the developed concepts and allows their evaluation. Thereby the system can be used with different access methods to the same data collection. This approach intends to present both standard detail examples and project-related detail examples. For that reason the structural connections will be presented including all available project data. The information includes texts, sketches, drawings, photos, animations, and the database description. Our implementation handles this content. According to the holistic presentation of the search results a strong tool for evaluation is given to the user.

title	An urban grammar for Portuguese colonial new towns in the 18th century
source	SIGraDi 2009 - Proceedings of the 13th Congress of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics, Sao Paulo, Brazil, November 16-18, 2009
summary	This study describes the morphological urban order underlying Portuguese treatises and Portuguese urban cartographic representation produced from 16th century to 18th century. The historical documentation suggests that Pythagorean-Euclidian geometry appears to be a crucial ingredient for the understanding of Portuguese urban design-thinking and urban design-making. To unveil the genesis of the morphological urban order present in the Portuguese colonial plans of the eighteenth century, a descriptive method, Shape Grammar has been adopted. Shape Grammar, as method, supports the analysis of the form-making logic and has proved to be powerful in shape analysis, description, interpretation, classification, evaluation and generation of a design language.

title	Emerg.cities4all: Towards a shape grammar based computational system tool for generating a sustainable and integrated urban design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2011.152
source	RESPECTING FRAGILE PLACES [29th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-9-4912070-1-3], University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Architecture (Slovenia) 21-24 September 2011, pp.152-158
summary	The ongoing research project called “Emerg.cities4all” is focused on the development of a generative computer-aided planning support system for cities and housing to low-income populations, using a descriptive method as the Shape Grammars and based on multi-agent rule-based system. The goal is to develop a system that could reveal the cultural, social and spatial dynamics involved in the genesis of informal settlements (favelas, musseques and caniços) and use it to generate contemporary humanized urban morphologies. The multi agent shape grammar implementation could generate automatically designs according to different types of users: urban planners, architect and local end users. This paper presents the methodology and the initial results of the research, using an informal settlement as a case study.

title	A Generative Urban Grammar for Portuguese Colonial Cities, During the Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries: Towards a Tool for Urban Design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2009.585

summary	This paper main goal is to depict the generative principles of 16th -18th century Portuguese colonial urban design described from its Pythagorean-Euclidean geometrical genesis and correspondent logical rules and operations. These origins were found in Portuguese compendiums and treaties on practical geometry, architectural and military engineering from the sixteenth through the eighteenth century. The study attempts to show that rigorous operative geometrical discourse is inseparable from social knowledge, whereby form is the operative result of abstract mental processes and logical visual reasoning associated to ideas of growth and reproduction of order.

source	FUTURE CITIES [28th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-9-6] ETH Zurich (Switzerland) 15-18 September 2010, pp.349-358
summary	This paper suggests that Portuguese historical cities were based on a structured knowledge-based process from where it’s possible to retrieve not only a generative parametric urban grammar but also to construct a computational model capable to generate Portuguese planimetric proportionate and symmetrical urban grammar. The grammar is described graphically and discursively, followed by the introduction of a 2D shape grammars interpreter UrbanGENE. The 2D shape grammar interpreter will allow the user to interact with the genetic and generative principles of Portuguese historical urban design from 16th to 18th century and additionally be deployed in urban history teaching and learning.

title	Computational Assessment of Passive Cooling Methods in Buildings
source	Vienna University of Technology; Building Science & Technology
summary	Various factors have been contributing to a recent steady increase in buildings’ demands for cooling energy: environmental changes, increased heat gains due to equipment and growing expectations in view of acceptable indoor thermal conditions. Given this context, it’s both environmentally and economically meaningful to develop and implement passive cooling techniques toward the reduction of buildings’ demand for cooling energy. In the present study, we use parametric simulations to compute the relative impact of various passive cooling technologies toward the reduction of overheating risk in residential buildings. The cooling measures under examination are shading, natural ventilation (emphasizing on night time natural ventilation), and the application of phase change materials (PCM). The buildings that are being used for the parametric studies are an apartment and a double-storey single house, both simulated for a Mediterranean climate (Athens, Greece) and middle-European one (Vienna, Austria). The results showed that passive cooling methods can significantly contribute the reduction of overheating in buildings. In particular shading and night time ventilation have been shown to be very effective especially if applied in combination. PCMs on the other hand, showed a limited potential in the reduction of overheating risk, at least under the specific climatic circumstances.

title	Parametric Design Learning Strategies in the Context of Architectural Design Remote Teaching
source	Gomez, P and Braida, F (eds.), Designing Possibilities - Proceedings of the XXV International Conference of the Ibero-American Society of Digital Graphics (SIGraDi 2021), Online, 8 - 12 November 2021, pp. 1077–1088
summary	This article aims to demonstrate how a theoretical-didactic model and its respective teaching strategies for algorithmic-parametric logic can act as potential elements of innovation in the architectural design process. Based on the theories of parametric design thinking by Oxman (2017) and the studies by Woodbury (2010) and Romcy (2017), such strategies are based on the principle that algorithmic logic can be understood, in certain circumstances, as a procedural framework and not just an instrumental one. It will also be discussed how the situation of remote learning in the face of the COVID-19 crisis brought about the use of virtual teaching tools as an increment of the learning process.

summary	As part of an ongoing research on the study of digital tools envisioning innovation in the design process, this article intends to demonstrate how analogical and digital design thinking techniques can improve and expand the range of creative methodologies in the context of an undergraduate architectural design studio. The approach presented builds on the improvement of a theoretical-didactic model during three strategies, each aiming at different steps of the design process. The first one explores analog design thinking techniques on the initial concept decisions, the following demonstrates the joint use of parametric and BIM tools as an alternative resource for generating complex forms, and the last one presents BIM technology as a pedagogical instrument for learning a constructive system. Thus, besides presenting the methods, instruments, products, and results generated, this paper will also discuss the gains and difficulties faced, appointing a new approach to undergo in the future.

summary	The production of contemporary architecture in Ceará is part of an economic, political and cultural-ideological context of alignment with global economic flows, constituting a significant collection to be documented and analyzed. The use of BIM as a technology that uses parametric models for inventory, documentation, intervention, management, promotion and analysis of existing projects and buildings allows, in addition to its (re)construction through virtual simulation, the exploration and management of information, becoming an object and source of study. Modeling also enables the construction of digital diagrams that allow the understanding of design processes, as well as interpretation. In this context, the objective of this paper is to analyze the process of constructing digital diagrams through the BIM platform as a strategy for analyzing contemporary architecture in Ceará, taking as a case study institutional buildings for higher education, namely the Advanced Campus of the Federal University of Ceará - UFC in Russas.

summary	In a context where architectural education is undergoing great transformations due to the impact of digital technology, the authors present a design studio model that rather than teaching how to operate the tool en vogue focuses on the formulation of questions. Traditional pedagogic practices have privileged answers in knowledge production, but an alternative is proposed. A methodology was devised in which problem-finding is moved forward by an iterative process of experimental making. This was tested in Winter 2017 with results showing a diversity in questions raised, but also the premature discontinuation of several paths of inquiry. Only one completed all 6 planned iterations and benefited from the final, in which the building of a 1:1 prototype informed its research focus. The conclusions highlight the contribution of this model in preparing future practitioners with an attitude of inquiry and drive to experiment that will resist obsoleteness from rapid technological developments.
