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.
Course: MAA01 25/26 Digital Matter Studio
Becoming Embodied
Digital Matter explores how digital technologies can radically rethink material practices in architecture to address the environmental impacts of construction. This research studio reframes materials from scarcity to abundance, introducing circular material economies, reclaimed and waste-based resources, and concepts such as urban mining, buildings as material banks, and design for disassembly. Students engage with embodied carbon analysis, life-cycle assessment, and computational tools to digitize, monitor, and optimize material flows, supporting regenerative and decarbonized architectural design.
