Architectural inclusivity: Adaptive spaces for aural wellbeing of individuals with dissimilar sensorium (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

It is often found that architectural spaces are designed primarily through visual geometrical procedures, privileging a standardised kind of user experience. Vision has been given a prominent role in the spatial experience. However, as we might be in...

Inspiration from animal's collective behavior for home energy demand management (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

An interdisciplinary approach towards managing energy demand through users' behavior is discussed, drawing on knowledge from studies on collective behavior in nature. Studies on home energy demand management have focused mainly on social, technical a... Read More about Inspiration from animal's collective behavior for home energy demand management.

Towards empathy in computational design: Co-design and semantic metrics (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Today , computation design has provoked new theoretical frameworks on the systemic design processes (Derix & Izaki 2014). It is acknowledged that individuals possess varying "emotional intelligent quotients" at various levels. Indeed, Baron-Cohen and...

Embedded intelligent empathy: A systematic review towards a conceptual framework (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper is part of a feasibility project aiming to expand computational design processes to include design empathy. The project is in response to recent valid criticism of computational design overlooking the empathy of the designer. Computational...

Graphical representation of sonic urban morphologies simulation interface for the design process (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Although the interdisciplinary field of Soundscape was originally intended as a paradigm-shift for urban design, the process of designing the aural spatial signature of urban open spaces has not yet been made readily accessible to the designer in mod...

An architectural approach to the Soundwalk method (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A series of on-site surveys are conducted to observe possible qualitative aural pattern formations by using spatial measurements as fundamental parameters. The method assimilates the Soundwalk technique and the Relative Approach from the fields of so... Read More about An architectural approach to the Soundwalk method.

Towards sonic urban morphologies: A modeling Nexus (WIP) (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper is part of an ongoing research investigating the potential for creating a tool that integrates the theoretical spatial and soundscape design connections, to aid spatial designers when considering sound as a primary driver for urban design.... Read More about Towards sonic urban morphologies: A modeling Nexus (WIP).

Urban acoustic simulation: Analysis of urban public spaces through auditory senses (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper explores the sonic characteristics of urban spaces, with the application of apprehending acoustic space and form theory. The theory defines auditory spaces as acoustical arenas, which are spaces defined and delineated by sonic events. Hist...
