Toolbox for super-structured and super-structure free multi-disciplinary building spatial design optimisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Multi-disciplinary optimisation of building spatial designs is characterised by large solution spaces. Here two approaches are introduced, one being super-structured and the other super-structure free. Both are different in nature and perform differently

Circularity at the neighbourhood scale: co-creative living lab lessons

open access: yesBuildings & Cities
The transition to a circular economy is a challenging problem for the built environment, as circularity is not a well-understood term, nor do societal stakeholders have a common vision.
