CONFERENCE

Advances in Architectural Geometry (AAG) is a conference where both theoretical and practical work linked to new geometrical developments is presented. It involves architects, engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, software and algorithms designers and contractors. We aim at connecting researchers from architectural and engineering practices, academia and industry.

AAG has become a reference both in research and in practice and is supported by the direct participation of the most renowned architectural design and engineering offices along with research laboratories.

The symposium is a biennial event. It was held first in 2008 and 2010 in Vienna, 2012 in Paris, 2014 in London, 2016 in Zurich, 2018 in Gothenburg and 2020 in Paris.

In 2023 it will take place in Stuttgart from 04. – 07. October 2023, organized by the Cluster of Excellence IntCDC (Integrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture).

ABOUT

Geometry lies at the core of the architectural design process. It is omnipresent, from the initial form-finding stages, to novel manufacturing techniques, to the construction, and to post occupancy monitoring. But the role of geometry in architecture and engineering is also continuously evolving.

Geometry increasingly plays a role in modeling environments and processing sensing information. Modern geometric computing provides a variety of tools for the efficient design, analysis, and manufacturing of complex shapes. Besides descriptive geometry controlling form, algorithmic processes play a crucial role in integrating disciplinary input.

On the one hand this opens up new horizons for architecture. On the other hand, the architectural context also poses new problems to geometry. Around these problems the research area of architectural geometry has emerged. It is located at the common border of architecture with applied geometry, computational design, mathematics, and manufacturing.

We are pleased to announce the Call for Workshops for The Advances in Architectural Geometry Conference 2023, which is organized by the Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture” (IntCDC) at the University of Stuttgart, Germany from October 4 – 7, 2023.

We invite you to submit proposals for two-day workshops to take place at the University of Stuttgart on October 4 and 5, before the main track of the Advances in Architectural Geometry Conference 2023. 

We particularly encourage proposals for highly interactive and collaborative workshops in the areas of architecture, geometry, engineering and AI in construction. The submission deadline will be March, 20 via email. For more information on the workshop submission guidelines, please follow below link:

INTCDC CONFERENCE 2022

INTEGRATIVE COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION FOR FUTURE-PROOF ARCHITECTURE

The very first AdvanceAEC Autumn School will lay the foundation for an annually recurring format. This year’s AdvanceAEC Autumn School is hosted by IntCDC and will be part of the Stuttgart Week of Advancing AEC. It is aimed at early career researchers, e.g. master students, PhD students and postdocs from the partner institutions of the AdvanceAEC network.
In workshops organized by members of the partner institutions, young scientists will have the opportunity to explore theoretical concepts, test practical skills and become familiar with manufacturing processes, programming languages and computer programs. The 2022 courses will include social sciences, computer science and computation, concrete design, carbon concrete structures, robotics and manufacturing. In addition, participation in the CRC 1244 conference is offered. The AdvanceAEC Autumn School will also enable young scientists to get to know each other and to network with members of the partner organizations. On the one hand, networking workshops in the areas of equal opportunity and start-up supporting measures, a poster session for networking among doctoral students and a workshop on career development specifically designed for postdocs and senior research associates (pre-professorship) will be offered. On the other hand, a social program provides opportunities for informal networking. For more information and registration please follow this link!

find potential job candidates and partners

Advance AEC can be used for active recruiting or finding partners for projects. Different filter options help you narrow your search to fit your needs. For help on how to find academic partners, job candidates and industry professionals on AdvanceAEC, see the video tutorial #2 on the right.

A special issue of the journal “Bautechnik” on the AdvanceAEC network has now been published. In addition to an introduction of the research network by its founders, you will find several papers of the network partners on the topic of “building in the future” with the focus on digitalization and automation.
