IAAC’s Master in AI for Architecture & the Built Environment is a unique program oriented towards leading the change in decarbonising human activities and crafting a more sustainable, resilient future urbanisation for our planet. Through an innovative curriculum deeply rooted in AI applications, the program pioneers novel AI-driven solutions that not only respond to the pressing challenges of our time but also set a new standard for environmentally and socially conscious co-design and planning. The Master in AI for Architecture & the Built Environment is training the professionals that city administrations, governments, industries, and communities need, to transform the built environment in the era of digital technologies.
In pick-and-place robotics, a robotic arm must move from a start position to a target location (e.g., to pick or place an object) while safely navigating around obstacles. These obstacles may vary in size, severity, or risk — requiring the robot to adapt its path based on the workspace condition. This project simulates the core … Read more
Abstract:Our research explores how data-driven digital tools can optimize emergency response times using geospatial analysis and computational simulation methods. Focusing on Kadikoy district in Istanbul, we simulated ambulance routes from stations to emergencies to emergency rooms, using distance as a proxy for response time. Our study analyzed two scenarios: i) the current infrastructure; ii) identifying … Read more
The work presented in this blog post explores how code and visual tools can be used to create and represent the data central to this research group’s main project in the Research Studio. It focuses on integrating data-driven design methods to support sustainable façade development while aligning with environmental guidelines. By emphasizing the creation and … Read more
AbstractGreen spaces play a critical role in enhancing urban livability by improving air quality, reducing urban heat island effects, and promoting mental and physical well-being.This project evaluates the spatial distribution of green spaces in Barcelona and their compliance with the European Environment Agency (EEA) standard of 9 m² of green space per person. By overlaying … Read more
