We present and discuss an experimental student design and research project that investigates how architectural design can be enhanced via immersive technologies. Specifically, by employing not a 2D interface for designers' thoughts, but a 3D interface and thereby activating the whole body instead of merely head and hands.
We discuss the creative potential of algorithmic design processes in architecture which use computer-based tools through presenting student work employing these techniques. We propose ways of further amplifying these creative possibilities by employing evolutionary design strategies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
