Based on their core purpose - residential or commercial or both, building design demands sensitivity clubbed with pragmatic approach; besides the number game, which is the crux of any estate. A skillful approach to this genre is exhibited by Park Associati architects from Milan in the design of a residential cum commercial building in a hilly wooded area in Azzate, (VA), Italy.

What Experts Are Saying "KPF has been using GenerativeComponents for some time and it forms a key component in the armory of the KPF Computational Geometry Group. Several of our most advanced projects employ GenerativeComponents as a tool for exploring thousands of options as well as the complex geometry to be used in final construction, all ultimately benefiting our clients. The nature of GenerativeComponents as a MicroStation extension means that, as a matter of course, our advanced designs can be interchanged with an extraordinary variety of software." - Lars Hesselgren, Kohn Pederson Fox "At Arup, we believe firmly in the principle of integrated design and integrated approaches to design - it's the only way to design complex buildings well. That's why we use GenerativeComponents. And we are not alone. We are starting to see young people coming through the system doing things we could only have dreamed about a few years ago." - J Parrish, Arup Sport "Simplicity seeds complexity. But in the search for form we need to add reference to the representation to articulate the result. GenerativeComponents enables us to find, explore, and regulate forms more rapidly, and to transmit these forms to fabrication more economically." - Hugh Whitehead, Foster + Partners "Grimshaw's offices all share a common DNA. We are a design-driven office, and all projects are informed by the specific location, program, and environmental forces. We employ GenerativeComponents to take in and embed the multitude of inputs and structure them using this common DNA, thus enabling us to rapidly explore a variety of environmentally appropriate solutions for each design project." - Shane Burger, Grimshaw Architects "Using GenerativeComponents, we can accelerate our iteration through design options and, in parallel, assess all concepts and dismiss those that would be uneconomic to construct. As a result, we get to spend more time fine-tuning the best solution.â

Has AI in Architecture arrived? How is it impacting you? Our cover story focusses on the most eloquent topic of recent times - AI in Architecture. Whilst we tell you a lot about its tools and how it facilitates the practice of design, one cannot ignore the challenges that makes the adoption of AI a selectively approached resource. https://bit.ly/AI-in-Arch-IAnD We invite you to share with us your thoughts on the use of AI in your practice. The pros, cons, misgivings, positive experiences… et al. We are waiting to hear from you. Write in to us at editor@indiaartndesign.com along with an image that you have explored through AI. Please mention that AI tool used. Select responses will find their way to our social media pages taking the discussion forward. https://www.indiaartndesign.com/the-age-of-ai-a-catalyst-for-the-architectural-practice/
