In an industry where productivity often takes a backseat, this presentation brings a much-needed focus on leveraging computational thinking—defined as the creation of design systems powered by data and code that capture and simulate design logic—to enhance both efficiency and creativity in architectural practices. For instance, consider a project where computational thinking was deployed to automate the optimization of building layouts based on solar exposure and energy efficiency criteria, significantly reducing the time required for manual adjustments and enhancing the project’s energy performance. Join the founder of FutureBreed and former Technology Director at INFORM Studio, Azubike Ononye, as he explores practical strategies to innovate and streamline design processes in practice.
