Post Solar Logics

Optimizing Student Housing with Sunlight-Driven Computation This project uses Ladybug and Galapagos within Grasshopper to optimize the form and massing of a student housing complex based on solar performance. Ladybug was used to run radiation and sun-hour analyses, helping evaluate how different configurations received sunlight throughout the year. Galapagos, a genetic algorithm solver, was applied … Read more

PalmPilot 2000

No mouse. No keyboard. Just you.  Github Link: https://github.com/Adronegenius/palmpilot2000.git Problem/Opportunity Current 2D CAD layout tools rely heavily on complex UI layers and precise mouse manipulation. These become barriers for: PalmPilot2000 addresses this by introducing a body-centered interaction system, where gestures drive the logic of selecting, moving, and placing elements on a plan — with visual … Read more

HBIM and AI, a perspective on new technologies for Heritage architecture

Brief Heritage Building Information Modeling (HBIM) is a process for managing and conserving historical structures. Despite its potential and the European Directive 2014/24/EU, HBIM remains underutilized due to complex processes. AI-based technology can streamline HBIM processes at reduced costs, making heritage conservation more feasible. Technologies like LIDAR, TLS, photogrammetry (including UAVs), and SLAM, initially tested … Read more

AiR

AiR is an Augmented Reality (AR) interface designed for creation of temporary fabric structures with a wooden framework. AiR enhances your design experience by scanning the site and offering a catalog of structures tailored for shading, resting, or playing. With real-time AR visualization, you can preview your chosen designwithin the environment before assembling it. The … Read more

FAB-ARmour

FAB-ARmour is an augmented reality (AR) design system focused on artistic production and the development of body extensions (arms, shoulders, core). By using Grasshopper with the Culebra plugin, the project generates agent-based geometries that adapt to non-linear surfaces, creating complex digital structures. These designs are integrated into Unity AR, allowing for real-time visualization and iterative … Read more

Barcelona, like many modern cities, experiences the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, where built-up areas retain more heat than surrounding natural landscapes. This interactive map visualizes temperature variations across the city, highlighting areas most affected by heat buildup. 🛰️ What This Map Shows: 📍 Heat Hotspots – Areas with high surface temperatures due to dense construction and limited … Read more

Kaleidos

Abstract The project, Kaleidos, is the story of a transformative rehabilitation system that redefines the experience of incarceration. It targets individuals undergoing psychological recovery, creating a dynamic, non-linear journey of healing. This architecture does more than confine—it evolves, adapts, and interacts with its users, guiding them through stages of denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. … Read more
