HOSTILE
Architectural Alienation In a world that is rapidly urbanizing itself, architecture holds immense power to shape the lives of individuals and how they experience the public space. Yet, architectural design often neglects the various needs of the community it is supposed to serve, leading to alienation and exclusion, particularly for marginalized populations. – 1.1.Hostile design … Read more
Contexept
Contexept is a design-to-fabrication workflow that uses AI to generate context-aware façade designs and turn them into 3D-printable architectural modules. By combining semantic keyword clustering, image generation, and robotic clay printing, the system transforms abstract ideas into buildable, site-sensitive forms. It bridges digital creativity with physical construction, making AI a meaningful collaborator in architecture. Architecture … Read more
AiR
AiR is an Augmented Reality (AR) interface designed for creation of temporary fabric structures with a wooden framework. AiR enhances your design experience by scanning the site and offering a catalog of structures tailored for shading, resting, or playing. With real-time AR visualization, you can preview your chosen designwithin the environment before assembling it. The … Read more
FAB-ARmour
FAB-ARmour is an augmented reality (AR) design system focused on artistic production and the development of body extensions (arms, shoulders, core). By using Grasshopper with the Culebra plugin, the project generates agent-based geometries that adapt to non-linear surfaces, creating complex digital structures. These designs are integrated into Unity AR, allowing for real-time visualization and iterative … Read more
TerraFlux: The Cloud that Rains
Narrative TerraFlux[the cloud that rains]: humanity’s rehearsal for the future, a transhuman data driven system TerraFlux as a Singularity ThresholdThe Technological Singularity marks the moment when artificial intelligence surpasses human cognition, triggering a cascade of rapid, uncontrollable innovation. At this threshold, AI will evolve autonomously, improving itself at an accelerating pace. This transformative leap will … Read more
Trans-Siberian Glitch
How do digital multi-platforms branch our sense of alter-ego? ACT 1 | SCENE 1 The Trans-Siberian train passes through the pastoral snowy landscape. Each second, the window is framing a different scene. The train represents the transition between fragmented digital identities and beneath the masks. A family of three is sitting in the compartment. MOM: … 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
Neuroimmersive Space: User-Centric Adaptive AI-Generated Virtual NeuroArchitecture
Our surroundings have a significant impact on our thoughts and emotions and influence our overall well-being. This research project focuses on exploring the significant relationship between our mental states and surroundings, emphasizing the need to reimagine spaces as interactive, adaptable environments that prioritize mental well-being. Technological advancements such as virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), … Read more
CHAN-KA
Project Chan-Ka: Pioneering Sustainable Lunar Habitats The concept of Project Chan-Ka represents a significant leap in lunar habitation design. This innovative approach to creating a sustainable environment on the Moon is a testament to human ingenuity and the relentless pursuit of space exploration. The project envisions a habitat constructed from interlocking 3D printed components made … Read more
