title	From Chinese Gardens to Virtual Environments. A Gateway to Cyberspace
source	Digital Design - Research and Practice [Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / ISBN 1-4020-1210-1] Tainan (Taiwan) 13–15 October 2003, pp. 271-278
summary	Chinese gardens provide situated portals through which poets or artists can enter their imaginary worlds. Similarly, a visual interface (virtual environment) of a cyberspace provides entrances to this potentially infinite space. Derived from design principles of Chinese gardens, we propose a design method for creating virtual environments. We use this method to design and visualise several cyberspaces, including web sites, virtual Chinese gardens and 3D computer games. We conduct empirical studies and find virtual environments, created by the proposed method, provide users with experience correlated to the expected result.

summary	In order to understand the applicability of multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) to the building design process, a MDO framework, titled Evolutionary Energy Performance Feedback for Design (EEPFD), along with the prototype tool, H.D.S. Beagle, were developed to support designers with the incorporation of partially automated performance feedback during the early stages of design. This paper presents 2 experimental case studies, one from the design profession and the other from a design studio, that evaluate the applicability and impact of EEPFD on the early stage design process. Through these two case studies two different interaction and automation approaches for applying EEPFD are explored as part of the framework validation. Observed benefits, challenges and suggestions of EEPFD’s implementation are then presented and discussed.

title	3D printing as support for arts education for the visually impaired
source	SIGRADI 2015 [Proceedings of the 19th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - vol. 2 - ISBN: 978-85-8039-133-6] Florianópolis, SC, Brasil 23-27 November 2015, pp. 564-568.
summary	This article discusses some methodologies in art education in schools and educational activities in museums. It focuses on accessibility and in the visually impaired rights to access and improve the experiences and repertoire in artistic languages, recognizing the use of new technologies in the field of digital manufacturing as valuable resources for the production of teaching materials with the use of cheaper and accessible technology, which expands the access to cultural institutions and education. Considering that most of the museums art works are not to be touched, 3D printing reproductions in durable low cost plastic present as an alternative for tactile experience. In addition, the photogrammetric 3D scanning process and digital editing allow for the creation of isolated parts and materials originated from the art piece, broadening the pedagogical possibilities of art educators. The production of didactic material for arts teaching, with the use of 3D printed copies (edited or not) originated from 3D scans, may help revealing a more subtle and sophisticated aspect of artistic narrative to the public and the visually impaired.

source	CAAD Futures ‘93 [Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-444-89922-7] (Pittsburgh / USA), 1993, pp. 523-541
summary	In this paper, which will cite as illustrations some of the documents that have resulted in the completion of the Carnegie Mellon University College of Fine Arts Niches, we will discuss the interdependent relationship between craft and technology in architectural computer modeling practice. We will suggest that practical uses of the computer demand the counterbalancing intimacy of craft in the design studio. Our goal in the Niches Project was to couple direct tactile experience, historical knowledge, and the precise operations afforded by computers.

title	Constructing Geometric Regularity underlying Building Facades
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2000.313
source	Promise and Reality: State of the Art versus State of Practice in Computing for the Design and Planning Process [18th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9523687-6-5] Weimar (Germany) 22-24 June 2000, pp. 313-315
summary	Geometric regularity constitutes a basis for designers to initiate the formulation of building shapes and urban forms. For example, Le Corbusier considers the regulating line "an inevitable element of architecture" and uses it as a "means" for understanding and creating good designs. Thomas Beeby argues that the acquisition of knowledge on geometric construction plays a crucial role in the education of architecture design. This paper illustrates a computational approach to constructing the regularity of architectural geometry. The formal structure underlying a single façade and continuous façades are examined.

title	Study on Zoning of Urban Morphology based on GIS
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2009.317
source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 317-326
summary	The traditional studies of urban morphology mainly focus on material aspects such as urban construction, urban environment. The writers of the paper, however, point out that the nature behind material aspects should be load capacity of urban land-use, which can be reflected through some economic and technological indexes, such as floor area ratio(FAR), building density and building height, and generally they are relative. The paper forms a new morphology zoning method after having studied the relation of the above indexes based on the digital methods of GIS. This rout of thought may have some reference value for controlling the expanse of urban land-use, optimizing the allocation of resources and urban morphology and supervising the implementation of urban planning. In the paper, the author proposed the concept of “zhubei” to describe and evaluate urban morphology. We can further analyze “zhubei” regards urban planning analysis and management, for example, the slope analysis, aspect analysis, view analysis, area and volume analysis etc. Therefore, we can describe current urban morphology and evaluate its rationality by relevant conclusions just like describing vegetation.

title	Personal Assistant: Autonomous Agents Base on Multi-Agent System among Different Industrial Design Stakeholders
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2007.x.f2e
source	CAADRIA 2007 [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Nanjing (China) 19-21 April 2007
summary	To deal with complex communication problems, requires both a web-based collaborative system and a multi-agent system (MAS) integrated with knowledge management architecture. Agents have been acknowledged as a promising approach through the metaphor that an agent can act as a personal assistant. In this paper we proposes an approach to develop personal assistant agents, each of which can represent a different stakeholder and load different domain knowledge inside. To demonstrate our proposed concepts, we focus on a prototype system for notebook design for the company ASUS, a leading notebook manufacturer based in Taiwan.

title	Exploring Visual Factors Influencing Women’s Perceived Insecurity in Metro Stations and Adjacent Built Environments: A Case Study of Milan, Italy
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.2.385
source	Nicole Gardner, Christiane M. Herr, Likai Wang, Hirano Toshiki, Sumbul Ahmad Khan (eds.), ACCELERATED DESIGN - Proceedings of the 29th CAADRIA Conference, Singapore, 20-26 April 2024, Volume 2, pp. 385–394
summary	Prior research has established a direct correlation between women's perceived insecurity in public spaces and the design of the surrounding built environment. However, limited attention has been given to investigating how the built environment influences women's security perceptions within metro systems. This study introduces a novel methodology to analyze the impact of visual factors on the entire walking experience within commuter cores, covering both the station and surrounding areas in Milan Metro Line 1. Both Street View Imagery (SVI) and manual photography are employed for semantic segmentation analysis, followed by expert auditing and machine learning for evaluation. Finally, the study constructs regression models to analyze the relationship between the area ratio of visual factors and women’s perceptions. The results demonstrate that certain factors, such as wider platforms and sidewalks, can positively influence women's safety perceptions in the surrounding and interior spaces, respectively. The models could be used to dissect Milan's other metro stations and their surroundings, offering insights applicable to other metro lines. Moreover, the methodology presents serves as a framework for investigating analogous concerns in diverse cities and delving into the experiences of other marginal groups.

title	Computational design and fabrication of highly customizable architectural space frames: Making a flat-cut Weaire-Phelan structure
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing 2021, Vol. 19 - no. 1, 37–49
summary	This paper documents a computational approach to the design, fabrication, and assembly of customizable space structures built entirely out of flat-cut interlocking elements without the need of nodes, fasteners, cement, or glue. Following a Research by Design (RbD) methodology, we establish a framework comprising geometric and parametric modeling, structural analysis, and digital fabrication stages to examine the following research question: how might the modularity of a construction kit be combined with the plasticity of parametric descriptions to facilitate the design and fabrication of flat-cut space structures? We find that an adaptive joint design that resolves local deformations at the node and element levels can facilitate the construction of flat-cut space structures by making modular components responsive to local geometric, material, and mechanical demands. The research centers on the design and construction of an architecture-scale installation based on the Weaire-Phelan structure—an aperiodic space-filling geometric structure that approximates the geometry of foam—entirely out of flat-cut interlocking elements. Documenting the process in technical detail, as well as some limitations, the paper contributes to recent efforts to develop digital materials suitable for architectural applications. In addition, it contributes to extend the formal and architectural possibilities of flat-cut space structure design by facilitating “bottom-up” design explorations in concert with the structure’s tectonic resolution.

summary	Geometrically complex building components‚ reliance on high-touch implementation often results in tedious information reprocessing. Recent use of Mixed Reality (MR) in architectural practices, however, can reduce data translation and potentially increase design-to-build efficiency. This paper uses Aurora, a single-story residential building for 2021 China‚s Solar Decathlon Competition, as a demonstrator to evaluate the performance of on-site holographic building construction. This paper firstly reviews recent studies of MR in architectural design and practice. It then describes an MR-aided construction process of Aurora's non-standard building envelope and rooftop mounting structure, where in-situ holographic registration, human-machine cooperation, and as-built analysis are discussed. This paper concludes by stating that MR technologies provide unskilled implementers with a handy approach to materialise complex designs. The research was guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals, especially aligning with the GOAL 9 which seeks innovations in industry and infrastructure.

title	A generative design system based on evolutionary and mathematical functions
source	International Conference on Generative Art
summary	Previous work by Professor John Frazer on Evolutionary Architecture provides a basis for the development of a system evolving architectural envelopes in a generic and abstract manner. Recent research by the authors has focused on the implementation of a virtual environment for the automatic generation and exploration of complex forms and architectural envelopes based on solid modelling techniques and the integration of evolutionary algorithms, enhanced computational and mathematical models. Abstract data types are introduced for genotypes in a genetic algorithm order to develop complex models using generative and evolutionary computing techniques. Multi-objective optimisation techniques are employed for defining the fitness function in the evaluation process.
