The essence of technology is by no means anything technological.
— Martin Heidegger
We focus on the Computational Design research field that aims to explore ways of juxtaposing computational approaches and applications with professional practice and theory in design.
Therefore, the researchers are investigating to make the design environment more intelligent and easy to use through applying computational approaches such as artificial intelligence (AI) and human-computer interaction (HCI) on the basis of three related foundation fields: cognitive science, mathematics, and design theory.
These explorations result in computer-based frameworks or systems contributing to the enhancement of calculability using algorithmic and/or heuristic computational methods. In other words, the IBD research focus is on ‘computational culture’ as an extension of computational design.
