I am an Architect, which is a bit weird since my work is all dedicated to algorithmic thinking in Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) using Machine Learning and Deep Learning. In 2016, I built Ardaena.com to empower and train computational designers to use coding so we can offer automation in Design-Aware Fabrication and Fabrication-Aware Design to tackle challenges in free-form Structures and Facade Systems. The number of CLICKS is our currency to measure our workflows' performance.
At Ardaena, I lead teams implementing advanced open-source and customizable workflows that integrate automation and ML/DL, ensuring seamless collaboration and efficiency. My workshops at Parametric-Architecture.com, Performance Network, ratLAB, and DigitalFutures highlight how Ardaena emphasizes #AEC_Needs_Hybrid_Characters. Starting in 2024, we focused on data modelling instead of advanced 3D modelling, and we got ourselves to contribute to the Building Industry as Autodesk-authorised developers.
