The tools of architectural design are evolving constantly, and the possibilities of computational design are only just being discovered. Nothing will ever replace sketching with a pad and pencil, says Jeremy Graham, but as the next iteration after CAD (computer aided design) and three-dimensional modelling, computational design is another tool in the architect’s kit. The […]
Digital twinning is fast becoming an invaluable tool for those working the built environment. ADR talks to Tom White from Willow, who explains how the technology is revolutionising the sector. In simple terms what does WillowDigital do? Tom White: Willow is the digital twin for the built world. We are a technology company revolutionising the […]
COVID-19 has prompted a high-stakes stress-test of the architecture and design industry’s cloud infrastructure and remote working capacity. Cloud-based software has become the backbone of COVID-19’s global virtual collaboration experiment on a scale never previously experienced, with Microsoft reporting a 775% spike in demand for cloud services. The A&D industry has been historically reluctant to […]
Melbourne-based technology company Fologram have worked with All Brick bricklayers to show the potential of augmented reality (AR) technology to improve the precision and efficiency of traditional construction. Fusing augmented reality with the physical space, Fologram facilitates the construction of complex designs through digital instructions that are virtually superimposed into the workspace. The design model […]
