Within the current global context of rapid change, integrated with the potentials of digital technologies, IAAC’s Master in Advanced Architecture (MAA) is committed to the generation of new ideas and applications for Urban Design, Self Sufficiency, Digital Manufacturing Techniques and Advanced Interaction.
In this context IAAC works with a multidisciplinary approach, facing the challenges posed by our environment and the future development of cities, architecture and buildings, through a virtuous combination of technology, biology, computational design, digital and robotic fabrication, pushing innovation beyond the boundaries of a more traditional architectural approach.
In computer science, algorithms are habitually defined as fixed and often finite procedures of step-by-step instructions understood to produce something other than themselves. These logic structures interface with data, sourced from any computable phenomena, becoming the basis for a new array of design strategies. The Computational Design Seminar focuses on emergent design strategies based on algorithmic design logics. From the physical spaces of our built environment to the networked spaces of digital culture, algorithmic and computational strategies are reshaping not only design strategies, but the entire perception of Architecture and its boundaries.

The Cloudscape Pavilion is an innovative and visually striking architectural installation located in Jaume, Barcelona. This structure is designed to serve as a dynamic public space that merges art, architecture, and functionality, offering a unique experience for visitors. The pavilion design showcases a flowing, cloud-like canopy composed of cylindrical forms, creating an interplay of … Read more
This proposal envisions a pavilion at Plaça Nova, inspired by the interplay between structured grid systems and fluid, organic pathways. Designed to adapt to the dynamic needs of its users, the pavilion offers a versatile space that fosters connection and individual expression. With its modular design and open, flexible layout, the pavilion encourages movement and … Read more
