A Bee Survival Game Context – Bee-Careful starts in Lisbon, Portugal. Where social (vulnerable young community), environmental (ecological unbalance and fragmentation), and mobility (elderly retired community) problematics are adressed through one common medium; greenery. Greenery forms the binder in which the previous elderly community of Lisbon convverges with a new and young community across a … Read more
As the generations who have grown up around video games reach an age where they are beginning to buy homes, architects should provide advanced and easily navigable interfaces for people to interact with architecture. We should provide basic information on project mission and sustainability etc. and then allow potential customers to explore the designs in … Read more
This project explores how light can respond to human emotions through biosignals. The main goal is to design an adaptive architectural space where lighting changes according to the user’s physiological data, such as EEG, ECG, and GSR. Instead of using light only for visibility, this research treats light as an empathic interface between the human … Read more
We had an incredible, whirlwind five days co-creating public spaces with Pablo Muñoz, Luisa Torres, Josefina Ovalle Parot, and the amazing community of Santa Coloma de Gramenet. It felt like a rapid-fire game—running around the park, talking to people, collecting stories, analyzing data in GIS and Grasshopper, figuring out who to design for, and then … Read more
¿Cómo se habita una ciudad cuando no te preguntan cómo debería ser? Este proyecto explora nuevas formas de participación urbana desde el cuerpo, el cuidado y la imaginación. Caminando por mi barrio es una herramienta lúdica que surge como respuesta a una ciudad segregada, insegura y diseñada sin nosotras. Aquí comparto los avances de esta … Read more
A Multi-Agent, Socratic, Cognitive-Preserving Tutoring System for Architectural Education The Silent Crisis Picture this: A design student faces a challenging architectural problem. They need to create a sustainable community center that harmonizes with its urban context while meeting complex programmatic requirements. In 2023, they would likely turn to ChatGPT, type their question, and receive a … Read more
Creating Charismatic and Safer Public Spaces through Light RESEARCH QUESTION: How can experiential lighting features — ones that create interactive, changing, and flexible environments– be used in public spaces in order to create senses of community, safety, and improved mental and emotional health? HYPOTHESIS: If we integrate interactive lighting solutions as permanent fixtures in public … Read more
Automating Architectural Visualization: A Journey Through Technical Pivots and AI Evolution Introduction In the rapidly evolving landscape of architectural visualization, the gap between conceptual design and compelling visual presentation remains a significant challenge. While architects and designers excel at creating innovative spaces, transforming these 3D models into cinematic walkthroughs typically requires specialized skills, expensive software, … Read more
GG WORLDS: A Blender plugin that enables users to instantly generate and customize 3D environments from text prompts, using generative AI to save time, cost, and boost creative freedom. Physical Prototype: Our prototype demonstrates an interactive workflow where users arrange physical maps and landmarks, then use a tablet AR app to instantly visualize and modify … Read more
In contemporary architectural practice, the gap between conceptual design and structural analysis often leads to delays, miscommunication, and inefficient iteration cycles. This project proposes an integrated workflow that bridges this divide by creating an interactive interface where architects can receive real-time structural feedback while scanning their preliminary physical model. By combining Unity-based visualization, QR code-enabled … Read more
ABSTRACT Autonomous parametric furniture assembly using modular blocks and ROS-driven industrial robots promises to revolutionize on-demand manufacturing. In this work, we introduce DRDA (Dynamic Robotic Design Activities), a unified framework that seamlessly links customer-driven design to autonomous multi-robot execution. A user-defined geometry and style, which our custom block-selection and toolpath-generation engine converts into collision-free pick-and-place … Read more
“A Digital Tool that facilitates Self-Redevelopment in Mumbai through the Participatory Development Method [PDM] and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations [DAOs] to Reduce Ecological Footprint[EP]. ”
About This project investigates how colonial patterns of urban design in Footscray have historically shaped and continue to shape the experiences of mobility, vulnerability, and belonging among First Nations people. By tracing the spatial legacies of dispossession and infrastructural violence, the work critically maps how extractive logics have severed Indigenous connections to place. In response, … Read more
