This article investigates the ability of AI to generate plausible design options by recombining features extracted from just 40 dataset samples of shell and tensile structures, and how the trained model can communicate with the designer through existing CAD software.

Our new article: "Expertise, playfulness and analogical reasoning: three strategies to train Artificial Intelligence for design applications" has been published in “Architecture, Structures and Construction”.

On 21 August 2021, I was interviewed by Federico Solchi on SBS Italian Radio. Click on this link to visit the SBS Italian Website or play the video below to listen to the interview.

This DigitalFUTURES talk brings together a group of world-leading architecture and engineering scholars who are experts on computational structural design methods.

In this 9th edition of "How Virtual Becomes Real", students explored the spatial and tectonic qualities of form-resistant structures by designing a winery in regional Victoria, therefore answering the question: “What is the shape of wine?”
