Urban Insights: Leveraging Open Data for Smart Property Rate Predictions
1.0 Concept In the evolving landscape of urban development, property rates are influenced by numerous factors, including geographical, socio-economic, and infrastructural elements. Our project, “Urban Insights: Leveraging Open Data for Smart Property Rate Predictions,” aims to create an intelligent, data-driven model to forecast property rates. This model utilizes features such as wards, property types, and … Read more
Augmented & Mixed Reality
This studio explores the possibility of using AR in architecture with Unity. Living parts is a thesis focusing on the use of Biomaterials in Architectural Elements to sequester environmental carbon dioxide. Unity is used here to map the data from the CO2 sensor to Unity and see the data collected with the help of a … Read more
WindWave
Wind Wave is a secondary facade system engineered in response to the escalating environmental demands faced by our planet. Climate change is resulting in an increase in heat waves, with some reaching lethal intensities. As global temperatures rise, reliance on air conditioning systems has surged. However, these systems exacerbate external environmental heating by expelling hot … Read more
LEED MiniConsultant
The whole AEC industry is challenged by the high CO2 footprint caused by the increasing population and construction. Introducing regulations to the construction industry is a solution to reduce CO2 footprint. The workflow behind Leed mini consultant goes as follows: starting with gathering the regulation in a dataset and setting it up, training a rag … Read more
Impact of Urban Vegetation on Road Noise
Project goal For our graph Machine Learning project we chose to work with the city of Copenhagen. Our goal was to predict the Road Noise in the city. Dataset and data preparation From the KOBENHAVNS OPEN DATASET, we obtained a dataset detailing road noise levels across Copenhagen. To fill in the gaps where data was … Read more
growing garden
The intent of this project is to design and optimize a greenhouse located in an area with a pressing need for sustainable agriculture and challenging climatic conditions. The building aims to enhance local food security, improve agricultural productivity, and provide a controlled environment for growing diverse plant species year-round. The optimization focuses on maximizing sunlight … Read more
THF / PIXEL-HOF
Pixel-Hof reimagines Tempelhof, Berlin’s iconic 386-hectare airport, into a vibrant, sustainable urban oasis while addressing the housing crisis. Our innovative project weaves modular homes and dynamic activity spaces into a responsive pixelated grid, honoring the site’s historic spirit. Extending and morphing the existing plot grid to the site’s unique forms, we create conservation zones and … Read more
THF/PARK-LOOP
Tempelhofer Revamp: Confronting Berlin’s Housing Dilemma Tempelhofer Feld, once a bustling airfield, holds a significant place in Berlin’s rich and complex history. Originally opened in 1923, Tempelhof Airport was one of the world’s first commercial airports and played a critical role during the Berlin Airlift of 1948-1949, when Allied forces supplied West Berlin amidst the … Read more

THF // MICRO-CITY
The proposed vision for Tempelhof is articulated as a ‘city within a city’ arranged along the two airstrips of the former airport, extending perpendicularly to emphasise a dual directionality. Buildings are conceived as flexible micro-communities built on organic/biodegradable materials, with the possibility of growing or ‘de-growing’ through time.The design strategy aims to trigger a need … Read more
Customizing comfort
From parts to purpose – embracing circularity by redefining furniture composition Problem In contemporary furniture markets there is a problem of the environmental impact caused by inefficient design, excessive waste generation, and unsustainable consumption. Results are overproduction, resource depletion, and high carbon emissions during production processes. Additionally, limited design solutions don’t fully meet user needs, … Read more
