During the second year of the Master in Advanced Architecture + Thesis Project (MAA02), students have the unique opportunity to work for a period of 1 year on an Individual Thesis Project, focused on the development of a research or pilot project based on the student’s interest, and the learnings of the first year. IAAC supports the student in selecting their Thesis Project topic in order to better orient them according to their future career interests and opportunities. Each student, according to their specific topic, is assigned one or more Thesis Advisors that follow the development of the work throughout the year.
In parallel to the development of the Individual Thesis Project, the second year of the MAA02 offers a series of seminars enhancing the theoretical, practical and computational skills of the students.
Course: MAA01 25/26 Computational Design III (Level 1) Seminar
Introduction to Optimization and Design Decision-making
Computational Design III (Level 1) focuses on translating parametric design knowledge into structured and informed decision-making processes. Moving beyond purely generative approaches, the seminar introduces methods for evaluating, comparing, and selecting design alternatives through performance-driven workflows. Students engage with environmental simulation tools to assess microclimatic conditions and integrate data into iterative design development. Building on this, the course explores both single-objective and multi-objective optimization techniques to navigate complex solution spaces and visualize trade-offs. Through the application of multi-attribute decision-making methods, participants learn to rank and interpret design alternatives for developing clear and reproducible strategies for data-driven architectural design.
