About

I am mainly interested in computational design. I am now focused on architecture (previously on product design).

I am currently interested in collaborating with researchers on some of the technologies that I have developed:

1) Genoform - Generative form exploration
2) Layout problem - for rooms

I have no interest in theoretical methods.


Recently I launched an online teaching initiative to train students globally in emerging design technologies - Digital Design Academy.

I recently taught a master class on generative design in the University of South Australia - Adelaide, where I am currently based.

I am currently consolidating my many years of research on generative design for publications. I am also and developing both teaching material and software around generative design technologies.

I blog about generative design in generativedesign.wordpress.com and have started a Linked-in group on generative design.

My other interests are in mass customization, color selection (www.genopal.com) and deployable structures. I am also interested in developing intuitive design methods for structural design - aimed at enabling design students to design structural form without calculations.
