Flow – SIGHT: De- coding urban mobility
Introduction Urban traffic congestion is more than just an inconvenience—it’s a global challenge tied to pollution, stress, and wasted time. While cities are turning to AI-driven systems to ease the gridlock, the question remains: Do these technologies actually perform better than traditional methods?Flow – SIGHT is a comparative research project that investigates traffic systems across … Read more
Tierra Tower
Tierra Tower is a student housing project shaped by climate and material. Using earth sourced directly from site, it creates a vertical sequence of spaces that adapt to seasonal change and personal comfort. Thick earthen walls absorb and release heat, guiding movement through warm and cool zones. The building responds passively—through texture, temperature, and atmosphere—to … Read more
AQUA.NEST
AQUA.NEST: An AI-Powered Decision Support Toolbox for Adaptive Urban Design Using Nature-Based Solutions in Flood-Exposed Coastal Cities Coastal urban flooding is emerging as one of the most urgent climate challenges of our time. Without strong adaptation, annual flood damages could reach €930 billion globally by 2050, even with improved infrastructure (OECD, 2020). Rising sea levels and … Read more
The Echoes We Buried
Construction fractured an ecosystem, and listening began to heal it The Echoes We Buried is a speculative eco-fiction set in a fractured Barcelona, where construction noise disrupts not just human life but the deep, vibrating language of ecosystems. As species falter and signals blur, one person begins to listen—to the pressure, the silence, the unraveling. … Read more
Evolving Architecture: Genetic Optimization of a Pavilion through Solar Analysis
Project by Saad Khan and Sai Mohan Satwik Introduction- Evolution In nature, evolution is the quiet engineer — iterating lifeforms through adaptation, selection, and mutation to thrive in ever-changing environments. From the spiral of a seashell to the branching of trees, nature doesn’t design — it evolves. Inspired by this process, computational design tools now … Read more
Synthome
This object functions as a sculptural lamp, where the complex lattice of organic openings serves both an aesthetic and functional role. The irregular perforations allow light to escape in unpredictable and dynamic patterns, casting intricate shadows and gradients onto surrounding surfaces. As light passes through the varying densities and scales of the geometry, it diffuses … Read more
STEAMSENSE – Innovative Humidity Control with Natural Elements
Introduction The Self sufficient building studio students were tasked to use an old yet functional electronic equipment , understand its function and then integrate it into a new prototype body, repurposing its function which could later help sustain an architectural space. I, a one man group, decided to work with water in gaseous state- steam. … Read more

Living Frames: Architecting Intelligence for Multispecies Design
Contemporary architecture often prioritizes humans at the expense of ecological balance, distancing us from nature and other species. This thesis envisions a future where buildings evolve into living, adaptive frameworks that foster interspecies mutualism. By integrating third-order cybernetics, machine learning, and AI, architecture can become a mindful mediator, enhancing relationships between humans and other species. … Read more
Augmented & Mixed Reality
AR/VR enhances the connection between architecture and clients by visualizing rooftop pod safety, insulation, and climate adaptability. It provides immersive experiences, making designs more tangible, understandable, and acceptable for real-world living solutions. AR/VR allows clients to explore how rooftop pods are made, the materials used, and required tools. It offers immersive mockups, enhancing understanding, trust, … Read more
