Within the current global context of rapid change, integrated with the potentials of digital technologies, IAAC’s Master in AI for Architecture and the built environement (MaAI01) is committed to the generation of new ideas and pioneer novel AI-driven solutions applications for the fields of Urban Tech, Smart Construction and Natural Ecosystems. The three transversal objectives of the program are Regenerative Design, Carbon Neutrality and Co-Design Processes.
In this context IAAC and the MaAI works with a multidisciplinary approach, integrating computational design, rapid prototyping, machine learning, data science, and generative AI implementing sustainable practices at an unprecedented scale. 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.
The work presented in this blog post explores how UX and UI tools can be used to create a more accesible and interactive platform to this research group’s main project in the Research Studio class. By using tools like Figma and programming in HTML, CSS and JAVA, we try to apply the learnings into AI … Read more
Abstract The project explores innovative ways to address Barcelona’s sustainability challenges, such as carbon emissions, air pollution, and energy inefficiency.By leveraging AI, IoT sensors, and Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), the project aims to optimize municipal budgets for interventions that transform underutilized urban spaces into productive assets. The study highlights solutions like urban farming, greenery, and solar catchment systems, evaluated … Read more
