title	Parametric modeling as a supporting tool for teaching in a technical drawing course
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 783-790
summary	Despite the complexity of parametric modeling, used potentially to generate non-standard geometries, this paper presents a simple approach to adopt this tool as a support for teaching technical drawing contents. This experimental study was applied in a technical and high school education context, focusing on three subjects: 1) irregular polyhedra, 2) points in descriptive geometry, and 3) line in descriptive geometry. Exercises were implemented before and after the parametric experience with students, and the answers to both scenarios were compared. The results addressed to the efficiency of parametric modeling as a supporting tool in the teaching/learning process.

summary	School buildings are currently one of the largest portions of planning and building projects in Germany. In order to reflect the continuous developments in school building construction with constantly changing spatial requirements, an approach to analyse, derive and combine patterns of schools is proposed to adapt school typologies accordingly. Therefore, the topology is analysed, concerning interconnection methods, such as adjacency, accessibility, depth, and flow. The geometric analysis of e.g. room sizes or spatial proportions is enhanced by including grouping of rooms, estimated room clusters, or room shapes. Furthermore, text-matching is used to determine e.g. room program fulfilment, or assigning functional room descriptions to predefined room types, revealing huge differences of terms throughout time and architects. First results of the analyses show a relevant correlation between spatial proportion and room types.

title	Measuring the experience of algorithmic thought digital analogue design in architecture teaching
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 668-675
summary	Due to constant technological developments, society’s priorities and cultural perspectives have changed, requiring a redefinition of experiences in education. In the field of architecture teaching, the transition from CAD (Computer-Aided Design) to the design systems in other digital media, such as the parametric design, can be observed. This article aims to demonstrate two analog-digital experiences in an architecture school. The methodology consisted of dividing the activities into three stages: analog, logical, and digital. The results are described through quantitative and qualitative data acquired in the experiences. The data allowed toreflect on the strategies adopted, lessons learned, and futures challenges.

title	Recognizing Architectural Objects in Floor-plan Drawings Using Deep-learning Style-transfer Algorithms
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2020.2.717
source	D. Holzer, W. Nakapan, A. Globa, I. Koh (eds.), RE: Anthropocene, Design in the Age of Humans - Proceedings of the 25th CAADRIA Conference - Volume 2, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand, 5-6 August 2020, pp. 717-725
summary	This paper describes an approach of recognizing floor plans by assorting essential objects of the plan using deep-learning based style transfer algorithms. Previously, the recognition of floor plans in the design and remodeling phase was labor-intensive, requiring expert-dependent and manual interpretation. For a computer to take in the imaged architectural plan information, the symbols in the plan must be understood. However, the computer has difficulty in extracting information directly from the preexisting plans due to the different conditions of the plans. The goal is to change the preexisting plans to an integrated format to improve the readability by transferring their style into a comprehensible way using Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (cGAN). About 100-floor plans were used for the dataset which was previously constructed by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport of Korea. The proposed approach has such two steps: (1) to define the important objects contained in the floor plan which needs to be extracted and (2) to use the defined objects as training input data for the cGAN style transfer model. In this paper, wall, door, and window objects were selected as the target for extraction. The preexisting floor plans would be segmented into each part, altered into a consistent format which would then contribute to automatically extracting information for further utilization.

summary	Globally, the built environment is inequitable. And while construction automation is often heralded as the solution to labor shortages and the housing crisis, such methods tend to focus on technology, neglecting the wider socioeconomic contexts. Automated Architecture (AUAR), a spinoff of AUAR Labs at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, asserts that a values-centered, decentralized approach to automation centered around local communities can begin to address this material hegemony. The paper introduces and discusses AUAR’s platform-based framework, Discrete Automation, which subverts the status quo of automation that excludes those who are already disadvantaged into an inclusive network capable of providing solutions to both the automation gap and the assembly problem. Through both the wider context of existing modular housing platforms and issues of the current use of automated technologies in architectural production, Discrete Automation is discussed through the example of Block Type A, a discrete timber building system, which in conjunction with its combinatorial app constitutes the base of a community-led housing platform developed by AUAR. Built case studies are introduced alongside a discussion of the applied methodologies and an outlook on the platform’s potential for scalability in an equitable, sustainable manner.

title	Smart Contracts for Decentralised Building Information Modelling
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.2.565
source	Werner, L and Koering, D (eds.), Anthropologic: Architecture and Fabrication in the cognitive age - Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 16-18 September 2020, pp. 565-574
summary	The paper presents a model for decentralizing building information modelling, through implementing its infrastructure using the decentralized web. We discuss the shortcomings of BIM in terms of its infrastructure, with a focus on tracing identities of design authorship in this collective design tool. In parallel we examine the issues with BIM in the cloud and propose a decentralized infrastructure based on the Ethereum blockchain and the Interplanetary filesystem (IPFS). A series of computing nodes, that act as nodes on the Ethereum Blockchain, host disk storage with which they participate in a larger storage pool on the Interplanetary Filesystem. This storage is made available through an API is used by architects and designers creating and editing a building information model that resides on the IPFS decentralised storage. Through this infrastructure central servers are eliminated, and BIM libraries and models can be shared with others in an immutable and transparent manner. As such Architecture practices are able to exploit their intellectual property in novel ways, by making it public on the internet. The infrastructure also allows the decentralised creation of a resilient global pool of data that allows the participation of computation agents in the creation and simulation of BIM models.

title	COVID-19 and the City: Mapping and Critical Analysis of the Virus Propagation in Fortaleza-CE
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. 941–953
summary	Social indicators are fundamental tools for measuring social facts, and their use has the potential to facilitate broad access to information. In 2020, the World experienced the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic, which impacted the socio-spatial reality of cities around the world in several aspects and deepened social inequalities. As part of a coping Covid-19 project by ArqPET, the Somar Platform, this paper presents a mapping process of the spread of Covid-19 in Fortaleza during the four months after its arrival. The mapping, which aims to inform public policies and provides documents that support the demand for adequate housing and sanitary infrastructure in the neglected spaces of the city, relates the spread of the virus to social indicators and uses database technology to optimize its productions.

title	Urban Emotion - The interrogation of social media and its implications within urban context
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.2.475
source	Werner, L and Koering, D (eds.), Anthropologic: Architecture and Fabrication in the cognitive age - Proceedings of the 38th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany, 16-18 September 2020, pp. 475-482
summary	This paper presents social media as an analytical tool, helping to transform public policy-making, alongside urban needs by dissecting and evaluating human perception. Using emotion analysis on data gathered from a social media platform, experiments are developed to bring new value to architectural and civic narratives. Emotions from texts collected within social media platforms are extracted and mapped alongside tagged locations to gain a greater understanding of how public spaces are utilized. This project develops a new analytical layer within our built environment, working alongside the urban fabric, mechanical systems, and digital infrastructure. It is offered as an interactive tool for policymakers and designers to glean feedback, creating an informed conversation between citizens and decision-makers. Whereas social media platforms such as Twitter and Yelp have been referenced in past academic contexts, this project moves further by producing quantified emotions, painting a differentiated result from what purely semantic data could deliver.

title	Muta-soud: Architectural Configuration Generated from Music and Shape Grammars
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 209-216
summary	This paper proposes a design experiment that mixes music and architecture, through Shape Grammars. Each form and initial rule had musical markers that represented them and with the development of the application of the various rules, they became formal scores. After analyzing the functionality and studying volumetries, in order to give three-dimensional movement to the various results generated (botton-up), through adjustments that depend on individual and intuitive decisions (top-down), the resulting final object is a music school destined for the propagation of music, in a way, producing a metaphor of itself.

title	Machine Learning for Comparative Urban Planning at Scale: An Aviation Case Study

summary	Aviation is in flux, experiencing 5.4% yearly growth over the last two decades. However, with COVID-19 aviation was hard hit. This, along with its contribution to global warming, has led to louder calls to limit its use. This situation emphasizes how urban planners and technologists could contribute to understanding and responding to this change. This paper explores a novel workflow of performing image-based machine learning (ML) on satellite images of over 1,000 world airports that were algorithmically collated using European Space Agency Sentinel2 API. From these, the top 350 United States airports were analyzed with land use parameters extracted around the airport using computer vision, which were mapped against their passenger footfall numbers. The results demonstrate a scalable approach to identify how easy and beneficial it would be for certain airports to expand or contract and how this would impact the surrounding urban environment in terms of pollution and congestion. The generic nature of this workflow makes it possible to potentially extend this method to any large infrastructure and compare and analyze specific features across a large number of images while being able to understand the same feature through time. This is critical in answering key typology-based urban design challenges at a higher level and without needing to perform on-ground studies, which could be expensive and time-consuming.

title	Design collaboration towards constructibility in parametric design process - a design experiment with architecture students
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2020.1.305

summary	The use of parametric modeling in architectural design processes has made possible the creation of novel complex-shaped projects, but also launched new materialization challenges. This hard task addressed to a relevant need to comprehend the impact of constructibility on parametric design teaching. We analyzed how multicultural collaborative teams of students introduced construction constraints in parametric design processes, in an European architecture school. The method consisted of two design experiments with architecture students who designed a pavilion, starting from constraints such as time, material and pre-existences. The results addressed that the introduction of construction constraints since the early conceptual design stages conditioned the architectural shape, but also optimized time, decreased rework, and helped on decision-making. Despite the multiculturality, the students' lack of knowledge in construction methods indicated a high need for integration with engineering students and industry partners since graduation.

title	Design for disassembly: Using temporary fabrication for land politics in the Negev
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 18 - no. 2, 155-173
summary	Political conflicts have increasingly displaced people from their homes, necessitating various forms of temporary structures and housing. However, these shelters are often one-size-fits-all and do not take into account the individual requirements, family structures, or cultural needs of these communities. This article explores how digital fabrication can be used to empower disenfranchised communities to act as their own architects. Because the police demolish the structures in Al Araqib every 3 weeks, the residents have to rebuild their structures, and appropriate architecture as a resistance tool, and not only as a housing solution. This circumstance allows us to develop a structure designed primarily for the condition of rapid disassembly that can additionally be produced with a low-tech setup of a mobile computer numerical control router. Through this case study with the Bedouin village Al Araqib in the Negev Desert, we introduce the term community-specific design, present our methodology for designing and fabricating a temporary structure in collaboration with the community, and outline the logistics for a future mobile infrastructure. Beyond aiding the Bedouin’s fight for justice, our intention as designers, acutely aware of the power of technology and architecture, is to harness both physical and digital tools in an effort to create innovative systems that can be leveraged by unrecognized populations struggling for cultural survival.

Denver. 26-28 October 2023. edited by A. Crawford, N. Diniz, R. Beckett, J. Vanucchi, M. Swackhamer 174-179.
summary	This research project, conducted at the University of Montreal School of Architecture, presents an innovative approach to the construction of reticulated structures, focusing on the development and application of a novel, ultralight aluminum node. The node, constructed from a folded, laser-cut, 1-mm aluminum sheet, is designed to accommodate wooden linear members with varied rectangular sections, making it adaptable to bespoke geometries and low valence nodes. This innovative design offers a solution to the long-standing challenge in the construction industry of balancing cost, customization, and weight for reticulated structures through novel node designs (Abdelwahab and Tsavdaridis 2019; Dyvik et al. 2023; Chilton 2007; Rochas 2014; Hassani et al. 2020).

title	Bio-digital aesthetics as value system of post-Anthropocene architecture
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 18 - no. 2, 120-140
summary	It is timely within the Anthropocene era, more than ever before, to search for a non-anthropocentric mode of reasoning, and consequently designing. The PhotoSynthetica Consortium, established in 2018 and including London-based ecoLogicStudio, the Urban Morphogenesis Lab (Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London) and the Synthetic Landscape Lab (University of Innsbruck, Austria), has therefore been pursuing architecture as a research-based practice, exploring the interdependence of digital and biological intelligence in design by working directly with non-human living organisms. The research focuses on the diagrammatic capacity of these organisms in the process of growing and becoming part of complex bio-digital architectures. A key remit is training architects’ sensibility at recognising patterns of reasoning across disciplines, materialities and technological regimes, thus expanding the practice’s repertoire of aesthetic qualities. Recent developments in evolutionary psychology demonstrate that the human sense of beauty and pleasure is part of a co-evolutionary system of mind and surrounding environment. In these terms, human senses of beauty and pleasure have evolved as selection mechanisms. Cultivating and enhancing them compensate and integrate the functions of logical thinking to gain a systemic view on the planet Earth and the dramatic changes it is currently undergoing. This article seeks to illustrate, through a series of recent research projects, how a renewed appreciation of beauty in architecture has evolved into an operational tool to design and measure its actual ecological intelligence.

summary	Data sourced by mobile devices has gained importance in urban research techniques. We have conducted two different studies on the usage pattern of a university campus using Wi-Fi connections. We have evaluated this data using anonymization methods more restricted than the Brazilian Data Protection Law. One of our studies is an ongoing work on the campus reopening after the coronavirus crisis. We sought to obtain data that may constitute resources to resilient urban projects on campus. Our results highlight the liability of the more restricted anonymization method and the quality maintenance of the data representation simultaneously.

summary	This paper coincides with the conference theme that people have gradually become a vital force influencing the environmental system. In the future, it is necessary to study the influence of not only the built environment on people but also people's feedback on environmental design. This study explores the â€Žprocesses of interactive design using both emotion recognition and eye-tracking of users. By putting on wearable devices to roam and perceive in a virtual reality space, the physiological data of the users are collected in real-time and used to analyze their emotional responses and visual attention to the spaces. This method will provide an auxiliary way for non-architectural professional users to participate in architectural space design. At present, there is a lack of research on the comprehensive application of eye movement knowledge and emotional feedback in architectural space design. This integration will help professional designers to optimize the design of architectural space. For this paper, we review existing research and proposing an interactive design workflow that integrates eye tracking and emotion recognition. This workflow will help with the next stage of research to understand the design of a new International School of Design building.

summary	The dynamics of COVID-19 spread have been studied from an epidemiological perspective, at city, country, and global scales (Rabajante, 2020, Ma, 2020, and Giuliani et al., 2020), although after two years of the pandemic we know that viruses spread mostly through built environments. This study is part of the Spatiotemporal Modeling of COVID-19 spread in buildings research (Gomez, Hadi, and Kemenova et al., 2020 and 2021), which proposes a multidimensional model that integrates spatial configurations, temporal use of spaces, and virus characteristics into one multidimensional model. This paper presents a specific branch of this model that analyzes the behavioral parameters, such as vaccination, masking, and mRNA booster rates, and compares them to reducing room occupancy. We focused on human behavior, specifically human interactions within six feet. We utilized the multipurpose simulation software, AnyLogic, to quantify individual exposure to the virus, in the high school building by Perkins and Will. The results show how the most effective solution, reducing the occupancy rates or redesigning layouts, being the most impractical one, is as effective as 80% of the population getting a third boost.

summary	The inclusion of digital fabrication and prototyping in the school environment contributes significantly to learning, stimulating the cognitive process of students. The objective is to introduce concepts of these technologies to students from municipal public schools, relating to the built environment. The action research procedure is developed through practical workshops in a university's laboratory. The workshops promoted clarification about digital technologies for children, encouraging them to reflect on elements that promote improvement in the built environment. The approach with technologies since the beginning of citizen education, points to societies aware of the transformations in the environment in which they live.

summary	3D concrete printing (3DCP) has been successfully and widely applied in the fields of civil structure, infrastructure, architectural decoration etc.,due to its unique advantages of automation and flexibility, and has shown great potential for development. One of the key steps in the execution of 3DCP is the toolpath planning process. However, 3DCP typically utilize the flowable composite materials which changes with time, and it is easy to induce interface joints or filling defects due to uneven path distribution when constructing the irregularshaped construction. To solve the problem of printing path planning in 3DCP, this paper proposes tool-path planning based on mapping method, which integrates the rheology and necessary continuity of concrete materials into the printing process parameters, improves the mutual adaptability of printing process and material characteristics, improves the continuity of printing, the compactness of filling, and then ensures the stability and durability of printing structure.
