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.

ADAPTIVE ATMOSPHERE LAB
This project explores how light can respond to human emotions through biosignals. The main goal is to design an adaptive architectural space where lighting changes according to the user’s physiological data, such as EEG, ECG, and GSR. Instead of using light only for visibility, this research treats light as an empathic interface between the human … Read more
LAGOON RESCUE
Lagoon Rescue is an interactive spatial platform that examines the resilience of coastal lagoon systems under climatic and human-induced pressures by simulating how sediment deficit, storm intensity, salinity intrusion, and wetland degradation drive ecological instability, and how targeted interventions can influence lagoon stability over time. Simulation Interaction The platform functions as a decision-making interface that … Read more
