The presentation will explore the prospects for collaboration between the designer's intuition and the evolutionary algorithms to foster novel design opportunities. In this new approach, the architect plays a key role in guiding the evolutionary process, evolving solutions that harmonise diverse and sometimes conflicting design objectives. The aim is to leverage the strengths of evolutionary algorithms while preserving their creative autonomy, enhancing the design process through a fusion of human intuition and computational capabilities.
Addressing Designer's intuition in Evolutionary Design Process
With the evolution of highly sophisticated computational systems, the prospect of creating a collaborative system that integrates the strengths of humans and algorithmic processes in architecture is rising as a subject of high significance. This presentation explores the evolution of biologically inspired optimisation-oriented processes in design and introduces an interactive design method which relies on human designers interacting with the algorithmic processes to enable the capture of designers' intuition and creativity. It seeks to contribute to the current debate in the field of Interactive Genetic Algorithms and their capacity to accommodate objective and subjective design aims.

AmorphouStudio Exhibition at Tashkeel, Nad-AlShiba, Dubai.
A collection of 3d printed pieces, along with relevant sketches and rendering demonstrating process development from hand sketches, generation of 3d printed models for concept development, to final rendering showing the pieces in full scale. The collection includes a variety of pieces of different scale and nature from experimental studies, jewelry design, to furniture and architecture.
Part 2 of the exhibition is a dress design done in collaboration with fashion designer Kay Li. The dress concept was inspired by the voronoi pattern we designed for the open plaza of the Jumeirah Gardens mixed-use project. The pattern was modified for a dress design using the same algorithm that generated it, thus merging processes between fashion and architecture.
