MUTAVERSE is an AI-powered reality mutation engine. The project began with a simple speculative question: What if one architectural image could evolve into multiple alternative realities while still preserving its original identity? From Image Styling to Reality Mutation Rather than using generative AI only as a visual styling tool, MUTAVERSE explores how architecture can transform … Read more
“ An AR-Driven Biomimetic Pavilion Generated Through Environmental Field Behavior “ Architectural pavilion design and fabrication often require complex digital workflows, technical expertise, and multiple visualization tools, making the process difficult for rapid concept development and real-world understanding. Designers also face challenges in translating organic, nature-inspired forms into fabrication-friendly structures. BIOMIMICRY PAVILIONS Organic Geometry Biomimicry … Read more
Can Street Geometry Predict Urban Safety Risk? A machine-learning pipeline that classifies street morphology into risk typologies — from OpenStreetMap features to multi-city deployment, dead ends included. This post documents the full arc of our Urban Safety project — not just the results, but the reasoning, the wrong turns, and what we learned from them. … Read more
In contemporary urban planning, we often focus on the best parts of a city. However, true transformation begins by identifying the most vulnerable areas. We have recently developed a parametric model in Grasshopper to analyse the Gràcia District in Barcelona, utilizing a worst-case scenario routing logic to pinpoint exactly where new Green Axes should be … Read more
Mediterranean islands are crushed by tourism in July and August, and almost empty the rest of the year. So we asked what if generative AI could show people the ten months that already exist beyond those two? The goal was to make the off-season feel desirable, not as data, but as images you’d actually want … Read more
We have all been there. It is 3:00 AM, the competition deadline is looming, and you are trapped in an endless, soul-crushing loop of exporting from Rhino, tweaking vectors in Illustrator, and heavy post-processing in Photoshop. The repetitive grind of architectural representation can quickly lead to creative burnout. It is time to smash the old … Read more
How a sentence becomes a buildable LEGO set, and the engineering that makes it stand up. We named the project lEgoarCh. The capital E and C are us, Emilie and Charles, smuggled into the wordmark like a hidden stud. The demo is the fun part: you type a building, and a minute later a real LEGO set is sitting on a shelf. … Read more
Introduction Noise is one of the most pervasive environmental stressors in cities. Long-term exposure has been linked to sleep disturbance, cardiovascular disease, reduced cognitive performance, and lower overall quality of life. Yet despite its importance, detailed noise maps are surprisingly difficult to obtain. Producing official noise maps requires measurements, traffic models, and considerable technical effort. … Read more
ML-Driven Plant Placement for Adaptive Architecture BioSpatial Intelligence explores how machine learning can support planting decisions in architectural spaces. The project starts from a simple design question: when we design a building, how can we decide which plants belong to which environmental conditions? Instead of relying only on intuition, we developed a workflow that reads … Read more
– A satellite based platform for detecting sand mining across India Sand is the most extracted solid material on Earth, yet it remains one of the least regulated. In India, where rapid urbanisation drives relentless construction demand, river sand extraction has escalated into a crisis of ecological damage, governance failure, and organised crime. Riverbeds are … Read more
Objective Traditional flood risk maps take months to produce, are updated only every few years, and are too coarse, they might say a whole district is at risk without telling you which specific street or field will actually be underwater. “We are going to predict whether any given location in Thessaly, Greece is Flood-Prone or … Read more
Using climate clustering, vernacular precedent research, and evolutionary optimisation to create climate-responsive design typologies when no established local precedent exists Overview Lovingly named after the very first test location, Project Michigan is a tool that provides climate-responsive design guidelines when no local vernacular precedent exists. Through scraping climate data and global vernacular information, it helps … Read more
Co-Respira focuses on the home’s most important space—a place to gather, relax, share moments, or spend time alone—while creating opportunities for different generations to coexist within the same environment. Responding to today’s housing challenges, including increasing density, social isolation, and the need for more sustainable living models, the project proposes a co-living approach that balances privacy … Read more
Introduction This workshop explores new modes of architectural production through active collaboration between humans and robots, shifting away from traditional models of automation toward hybrid systems of shared decision-making. Rather than understanding the robot as a fully autonomous tool, it is framed as an agent that cooperates with the human in real time, creating a … Read more
“How can a real-time parametric system effectively optimize architectural truss geometry when constrained by a limited, randomized inventory of salvaged timber? “ Geometry vs. Inventory Standard architectural forms assume infinite material. When constrained by random, reclaimed timber offcuts, the geometry itself must adapt to survive. “Shifting the structural burden from material continuity to joint frequency.” Standard … Read more
