Course Summary

The Algorithmic Design Lab. (ADL), as its name suggests, is a research group that conducts research and practice on the architectural design process called "algorithmic design.



At ADL, we are exploring the computability of architecture by writing down every design process related to architecture into computer algorithms. By doing so thoroughly, we will reveal what only humans can do and what designers should do, in other words, the (in)computability of architecture.



For more specific information about the activities, please see the following two lecture videos.

Algorithmic Design --- Growing architecture like plants ---(00:12:16)

Framework for Algorithmic Design(01:29:47)



If you are at all interested in ADL after watching these videos, please come to our lab.

Even if you are a beginner in architectural design or have no experience in programming, you are welcome. If you are interested but worried, please talk to the current ADL members first. We welcome motivated students who are willing to explore the (in)computability of architecture with us.
