summary |
The Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) was founded on October 17, 1981. The first meeting was held at Carnegie-Mellon University and attended by 24 founding members. When the history of ACADIA is discussed, out of these two dozen founders, three are frequently noted: William Mitchell, Charles Eastman, and Chris Yessios. Mitchell was a pioneer in computer-aided design and smart cities research and is, as Wassim Jabi, ACADIA’s 21st president put it, “one of ACADIA’s most famous founding members.”1 Eastman was not only ACADIA’s first president, but also one of the leading figures in the history of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and is often referred to as “the father of BIM.” Yessios is widely known for his work at Ohio State University and his role in developing Form.Z. |
