Artificial Intelligence-Aided Design for Sustainability, Gebunden

Klappentext

Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the architecture and design disciplines, transforming how we design, think, and teach. This volume explores how AI is becoming not just a powerful digital tool but an active partner in the creation of more sustainable, adaptive, and forward-thinking design processes.

Focusing on the intersection of design, sustainability, and emerging technologies, this book investigates how AI contributes to the resilience of the architectural profession, supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and drives educational innovation aligned with the UNESCO 2019 Beijing Consensus.

Across the book chapters, leading researchers explore new workflows where AI enhances design development, enables complex analysis, and redefines creative roles. The book also examines hybrid analogue--digital practices and the adoption of computational concepts in design, revealing how architects are adapting to a deeply digitised future.

Organised around three central themes---AI for sustainable design, the evolving role of the architect, and innovation in education---this volume is essential reading for designers, educators, and researchers navigating the shifting landscape of architecture in the age of intelligent systems.

Part of Springer's Urban Sustainability series, AI-Aided Design for Sustainability offers critical insight into the tools, mindsets, and methods shaping contemporary architecture.
