Synopsis:
Computational Architecture offers an overview of digital tools and techniques, such as twisting, lofting, triangulating, drilling, knotting, and framing, that were used systematically to explore spatial, structural, and geometrical conditions, leading to the emergence of abstract prototypes.
About the Author: Asterios studied architecture at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and the RWTH Aachen, completing his postgraduate MA studies in Advanced Architectural Design at the Staedelschule Architecture Class (Frankfurt). Being a registered architect in Greece since 2000, he became a partner at b&k+ (Cologne) and then worked for VMX Architects (Amsterdam). After working for OMA that same year, he later founded the architecture and research laboratory a3lab Frankfurt-Thessaloniki and has been planning and realising projects around the world for a decade. His work has been published, awarded and exhibited widely. His research, teaching and lecturing experiences include the Aristotle University Thessaloniki, University of Thessaly, International Islamic University Malaysia, The Izmir University of Economics, the University of Westminster, the University of Edinburg, the Columbia University and MIT among others. He was a Research Associate at the Darmstadt University of Technology, a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Lebanese American University and a Senior Lecturer at Raffles Design Institute Shanghai. Today he is an Associate Professor for Digital Design, Programme Director for the MA in Advanced Architecture, PGT Lead in Architecture at the University of Liverpool, HEA Fellow and a registered Architect in the UK (ARB) and Greece (TEE). His 9th book 'AI-Assisted Architectural Design' was published in 2024 by BIS Publishers, Amsterdam. His current research activities are centred on AI-assisted design, 3D/4D printing, parametric design, generative design, material computation, VR/AR, robotics and digital fabrication.
