summary	Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies such as fused deposition modeling (FDM) have been gaining ground in architecture due to their potential to fabricate geometrically complex building components with integrated functionality. With that in mind, this paper showcases a novel design and fabrication strategy for the production of functionally graded faÃ§ade elements. Three functional integrations are investigated: gradient infill structures (Figure 1), a non-orthogonal discretization approach for 3D-printed faÃ§ade elements, and an integrated snapping panel-to-panel connection system. The presented process is then incorporated into a large-scale demonstrator consisting of eight individual faÃ§ade-panel elements. This paper first presents a prototypical approach for a large-scale, graded 3D-printed facade system with non-standard discretization and then opens the discussion to further related challenges.

title	DYNAMIC SIMULATION IN VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTS AS AN EVALUATION TOOL FOR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
source	Architectural Science Review, 44 (2), 139-144
summary	Prediction and evaluation of future performance of buildings are essential aspects of an efficient design process. This paper discusses dynamic simulation as a prediction and evaluation tool for architectural design. It is proposed that since buildings are living entities, whole life cycles of buildings should be dynamically simulated in a highly visualized virtual environment to evaluate the future performance of prospective designs. The media of architectural design (paper-based media: drawings and physical scale models; and digital media) are compared in terms of their capacity to support dynamic simulations. Some promising application areas are mentioned and some proposals are presented for the future use of dynamic simulations in virtual environments.

summary	After more than 30 years of its beginnings, Computer Aided Architectural Design (CAAD) has reached a level of maturity in both education and the profession. However, being a rapidly developing field, CAAD teaching still presents several challenges in terms of integration of theory and design. Thus, this paper discusses: 1. The different views of CAAD teaching between the professionals and academia 2. The integration of CAAD with design teaching.

summary	A new method is proposed to improve diminished reality (DR) simulations to allow the demolition and removal of entire buildings in large-scale spaces. Our research goal was to obtain optical integrity by using a scientific and reliable simulation approach. Further, we tackled presumption of the texture of the background sky by applying deep learning. Our approach extracted the background sky using information from the actual sky obtained from a photographed image. This method comprised two steps: (1) detection of the sky area from the image through image segmentation and (2) creation of an image of the sky through image inpainting. The deep convolutional neural networks developed by us to train and predict images were evaluated to be feasible and effective.

title	The Value of Arrhythmic Sounds in Isolated Space
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2006.403
source	Synthetic Landscapes [Proceedings of the 25th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer-Aided Design in Architecture] pp. 403-409
summary	This study examines the impact of bringing sound uninterrupted from outside a building into isolated spaces within the building. Is a silent space less or more productive than a space that is filled with normal outside sounds? Can bringing sound in from the outside, thereby allowing the users an uninterrupted connection to the outside without being in physical proximity of the exterior, make a difference in the work they do?Using music in these spaces has become commonplace. However, this research chooses to address sounds that do not mask the arrhythmic sounds of the world. These random sounds might break a person’s concentration, just as a bird flying by a window breaks one’s concentration. Even though these sounds of nature, vehicles, and people interrupt, do they give a greater sense of place than ambient music? Do these breaks in concentration help keep an individual oriented and aware of time while increasing both comfort and connection to the work being done?To test this thesis, students working in an isolated studio/classroom space will be subjected to the same sounds students in rooms near the outside would hear. Sounds will be provided by a direct audio link with the outside of the building. Student reaction will be evaluated by a series of observations and surveys that will focus on any differences in the amount of time spent on task, the sense of productivity experienced, the overall sense of functioning at a higher level and the interaction of student and professor.

source	CAADRIA 2007 [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Nanjing (China) 19-21 April 2007
summary	The new infrastructure of digital telecommunication and ubiquitous computation enables people to work, communicate, and entertain via electronic networks from their living places. Therefore, understanding the nature and design of digitally supported neighborhoods is likely to emerge as an increasingly important research question. This study investigates how neighborhoods in Melbourne can be more appropriately designed for new technologies and other convenience, especially for new residents with different life styles. It adopts Sidney Brower’s (1996) typology of neighborhoods and explores social, spatial and technological implications of new emergent lifestyles, according to Clifford’s (2002) classification, on every type.

title	Point Cloud Stream on Spatial Mixed Reality - Toward Telepresence in Architectural Field
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2018.2.727
source	Kepczynska-Walczak, A, Bialkowski, S (eds.), Computing for a better tomorrow - Proceedings of the 36th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, Lodz University of Technology, Lodz, Poland, 19-21 September 2018, pp. 727-734
summary	In remote meetings that involve the study of buildings and cities, sharing three-dimensional (3D) virtual spatial of buildings and cities is just as necessary as sharing the appearances and voices of meeting participants. Because of this, system development and pilot projects have attempted to share 3D virtual models via the internet in real-time but is still insufficient compared with face-to-face meeting. Therefore, this research explores the applicability of a spatial mixed reality (MR) system that displays point cloud streams to realize 3D remote meeting in architecture and urban fields. MR is a new technology that enables 3D presentations of various information, combining the physical and virtual worlds. One MR method is telepresence, which is expected to give people a way to communicate remotely as if face to face in a realistic way. We first developed a MR system named PcsMR (Point cloud stream on mixed reality) to display point cloud streams. The PcsMR system's operation consists of generating and transferring a point cloud stream and then rendering a point cloud stream using MR. The PcsMR acquired the point cloud stream in real-time using Kinect for Windows v2 and transferred it to Microsoft HoloLens, which uses optical see-through MR. Then we constructed two prototypes based on PcsMR and carried out pilot projects. Through observing the experiments, application possibilities for architecture and urban fields are found in meetings and communications that share real-time 3D objects and include the movement of remote participants and objects. The proposed method was evaluated feasible and effective.

source	CAADRIA 2008 [Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Chiang Mai (Thailand) 9-12 April 2008, pp. 244-250
summary	As the former infrastructures such as roads and electricity deeply transformed qualities of neighbourhoods, the new ITC technologies exert some fundamental changes over them. This paper, which is based on a master by research thesis, explores the newly emerging ITC-based lifestyles to understand the social and spatial impacts that they are seeking or may cause in their living environments. The study is typological and emphasizes on similarities and differences between different neighbourhood types (as physical contexts) and lifestyles (as human contexts).

summary	The experience of artificial objects in the virtual environment and the illusion of being there is a primary affordance of the virtual reality (VR) environment. The conviction of being located in a mediated environment is referred to as spatial presence. Although some studies investigate the relationship between VR and spatial intelligence, how users build a spatial presence in VR game environments remains ambiguous. Regarding that, this study tries to elaborate on the spatial presence experience construction and its characteristics in virtual reality (VR) puzzle-solving games by revealing the relationships between game mechanics and spatial presence notion. In this study, the presence-spatial performance relations are initially investigated based on previous works and analyzed in terms of spatial definition. Suppose the VR task performance depends on spatial abilities, people with higher spatial ability finish tasks faster, and their spatial presence score will be higher than people with lower spatial ability. A VR game called Golden Gate VR will be used as a case study to test and elaborate on the hypothesis above. This ongoing study has five steps: (1) Development of the game environment, (2) pre-psychometric assessment for visuo-spatial ability (Pre-Test), (3) Experience of the VR Game, (4) Evaluation of the experiences, (5) Re-development of the game environment. Experiences of the players’ will be evaluated in terms of Mental Imagery, Mental Rotation and Spatial Orientation regarding Spatial Presence Experience Scale (SPES). The first four steps will be elaborated on in this paper.

title	Teaching Building Information Modeling (BIM) from a Sustainabilty Design Perspective
source	Em‘body’ing Virtual Architecture: The Third International Conference of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2007), 28-30 November 2007, Alexandria, Egypt, pp. 635-650
summary	Building Information Modeling has recently gained significant attention both in academia and practice. BIM presents immense opportunities for increased efficiencies, coordination and quality of architectural design. One of the reasons that BIM offers a more comprehensive design approach is the fact that all aspect of the building are considered during the modeling phase. Rather than drawing the building using lines and circles actual object are used to model the building, which results in a more comprehensive underlying database model of the entire edifice being designed. The approach obviously has tremendous benefits in terms of coordination and systems integration, as well as, project control and management during the design and construction phases. Nevertheless BIM offers its own unique challenges vis-à-vis its introduction to students of architecture. The students in Architecture programs are usually introduced to BIM in two ways, either through a specialized course in CAD or via a shadow introduction in design studios and related courses. Careful positioning of the course within the architecture curriculum is crucial in order to gain maximum benefit in the synthesis of other course content. The reason being that students of architecture in earlier years of the design curriculum may not yet have developed the ability to synthesize and coordinate multiple systems required for complete BIM. This is an important consideration the design and pedagogy of introducing BIM to Architecture students. This paper argues for a new approach in teaching BIM for Architecture students. Instead of designing a course specifically for BIM/CAAD we present a paradigm whereas BIM can be presented within a larger more rigorous context. The experience of teaching BIM within a sustainable design framework is presented in this paper. Issues relating to the design of basic residential buildings were integrated into the course presenting BIM. A simplified set of design rules and guidelines under banner of sustainability were taught to the students in pre-defined doses and sequence throughout the course. The careful placement of these concepts permitted for BIM to be introduced in a more interesting and comprehensive manner than in the traditional CAD-course setting. Samples of student work are presented and critiqued in order to come up with recommendations and guidelines for incorporating BIM into a comprehensive and comprehensible course. The pedagogical advantages of and disadvantages of the approach are discussed within the paper, as well as, a detailed description of the course content and structure. Results from and outcome-based assessment of the objectives of the course are also illuminated which provided suggestions for future offerings of the course.

title	Future of Communicating Digital Design in Architecture: overcoming the divisive power of Computer Aided Design
source	Computing in Architecture / Re-Thinking the Discourse: The Second International Conference of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2006), 25-27 April 2006, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
summary	A few decades ago architects, engineers and the building industry relied on a set of self-developed tools for drawing and standards for communication within the profession and beyond. Everyone involved in the process of building understood these standards that were developed, controlled and updated by the profession. Today the situation appears more ambiguous. The introduction of Digital Media, and specifically Computer Aided Design, has greatly enhanced the potential for productivity gains. On the other hand, the lack of standardized open file exchange formats in CAD has created communication barriers by making data exchange more confusing and ambiguous. Frequently this has consumed the very productivity gains that were originally envisioned by industry. Problems with proper and fluent data exchange between software applications to no small extent are due to fundamental disagreements between software designers on the proper digital description of a building, leading to nearly insurmountable communication obstacles, designed to potentially divide the profession, practitioners and the educational environment. Consequently construction has not partaken in the productivity gains that other industries have enjoyed. Proprietary file formats and closed software systems have fostered the development of design camps that rally behind one software. Others reluctantly buy into certain “solutions” for they are perceived to be standards. Innovation is hampered as development of industry design tools is no longer controlled by architects, engineers and the construction sector but instead by private software companies frequently pursuing their Based on 20 years of experience with CAD in the profession and academia this paper critically investigates the status quo of CAD in the building industry. It points towards strategies of overcoming the current problematic situation and putting the profession back in control of its own communication process.

source	Reconnecting [ACADIA Conference Proceedings / ISBN 1-880250-03-9] Washington University (Saint Louis / USA) 1994, pp. 147-150
summary	Architectural Courseware is an interactive system which allows for the creative access of a courserelated multimedia database and the interactive manipulation of that database to enhance design education. This project began as a Teaching Initiative Project supported by the Division of Undergraduate Studies of North Carolina State University, Dr. James Anderson, Dean, and has evolved over two phases. Phase One produced an interactive prototype that explored the requirements and technology of multimedia as a support tool for undergraduate education, specifically for an architecture course in the School of Design, The History of Contemporary Architecture. Phase One was well received by various members of the North Carolina State University: faculty members, the Dean of the School of Design, the directors of the Library and the Computing Center, the Associate Provost for Academic Computing, The Provost, and the Dean of Undergraduate Studies. The Dean of Undergraduate Studies was encouraged by the Associate Provost for University Computing to contribute matching funds for the support of Phase Two of the project. Phase Two focused on a functional implementation of a module of the interactive prototype that could be used by students in the Fall '94 semester to test the effectiveness of the courseware concept.

summary	This study looks at a review of literature in regard to holographic construction within the period of 2012-2022, specifically analyses of its potential to aid circular design adaptation. The rationale behind this study is the lack of circularity context in holographic construction and augmented reality studies. The outcome of this literature review reveals aspects of holographic construction that lead to support for circular design opportunities. This paper provides a snapshot and is summarised with identified research gaps related to four key principles of circular buildings.

summary	This paper presents research work on digital fabrication and architectural robotics with the intent of creating lightweight composite material spatial assemblies comprised of parametrically differentiated components. Our process deploys one-part polyurethane (PU) foam to form units which after force-induced delamination can be stretched to span space and aggregated into surface assemblies at extremely low densities. The process developed and design artefacts produced, investigate creative opportunities in common construction material and robotic digital fabrication methods beyond conventional additive and subtractive manufacturing.
