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.

Acoustic Skin

An Intelligent, Shape-Shifting Sound Control System 01 | Project Abstract Acoustic Skin is an acoustic panel that morphs its surface geometry in real time to control the way sound interacts with the environment.
 It uses an array of miniature pistons embedded in a felt-covered membrane, behaving like a living, breathing skin that adapts its texture … Read more
