CO-DESIGN FROM ARCHITECTURAL, SOCIAL AND COMPUTATIONAL PERSPECTIVES: METHODS FOR THE INTEGRATIVE EXPLORATION OF DESIGN SPACES FOR FUTURE TIMBER BUILDINGS WITHIN EXISTING URBAN CONTEXTS

Our project aims to develop methods and tools for integrative design reviews based on architectural, regulative and socio-cultural decision-making criteria at the level of existing urban blocks. The challenge is to explore for, and with, future decision-makers and stakeholders the potential of multi-facetted co-design enabled by integrative computational design and construction of timber buildings, with a focus on visualisation approaches that broaden the (adaptive) design space. Research has shown that decision-making in the early design phase rarely considers a broader range of criteria and stakeholder concerns beyond geometric, technical and regulative criteria. Thus, current design approaches point to exploring novel visual representations of design criteria and early designs that can facilitate communication and decision-making with a broader audience. We will study and broaden the opportunities for integrating socio-cultural criteria and novel visualisations into early design decision-making by jointly examining the specifics of current computational design systems for these purposes and the design criteria included in them. We will jointly specify the information and visualisation criteria for design exploration in urban building stock extensions and densifications by mapping current conflicts in architectural design and observing stakeholders’ negotiations in the design process. Based on the identified criteria and technical integration specifics determined by the co-design-based timber building system developed in the cluster, we will develop a visual analytics system and create various visualisation options for design exploration. By probing the jointly developed visualisation prototypes with different stakeholders and in early design scenarios for timber buildings in urban contexts, we plan to iteratively integrate novel visualisation approaches to open up the design space of the computational culture.

  @article{braun2022digital, abstract = {The construction sector faces multiple challenges such as poor productivity, performance, and competitiveness and has a huge share in global waste production, CO2 emissions, and resource depletion. In this situation, a broad range of public and private stakeholders place their hopes on the digitalisation of construction, in particular, building information modelling (BIM). The article seeks to destabilise the notion of “the” digitalisation in a synchronic and a diachronic perspective. First, we map out the landscape of digital visions regarding the future of construction by examining pertinent academic, public, and professional discourses in recent years. We identify a vision of industrialised construction, a vision of data-based integration, a vision of singularised architecture, a vision of digital sustainability, and an emerging vision of the “twin green and digital transition.” In a diachronic perspective, we zoom in to UK “BIM-and-beyond” policy from 2011 to 2021 and show how BIM has evolved from a digital design tool into a critical component for building a national system of data-assets for data-based value creation. In both perspectives, we see a recurring storyline according to which the sector will solve all its problems if it only undertakes the digital transformation.}, author = {Braun, Kathrin and Kropp, Cordula and Boeva, Yana}, doi = {10.12759/hsr.47.2022.27}, ee = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1142/S0129054193000109}, journal = {HSR-Historical Social Research }, language = {engl}, month = {12}, number = 3, pages = {81-110}, title = {From Digital Design to Data-Assets: Competing Visions, Policy Projects,and Emerging Arrangements of Value Creation in the Digital Transformation of Construction}, url = {https://www.gesis.org/en/hsr/abstr/47-3/03braun-et-al}, volume = 47, year = 2022 }

  @article{braun2022constructing, abstract = {In this article, we argue that in order to properly assess the potentials, challenges, and implications of the digital transformation in architecture and construction, we need to better understand the political-economic dynamics behind it and examine it in light of the current reorganisation of global capitalism. The focus of this article is therefore on the larger political-economic and techno-economic conditions that are shaping the implementation of digital technologies in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sector. Based on document analysis on the digital turn in architecture and construction, along with interviews with AEC professionals, we argue that the logic of platform capitalism is beginning to transform the industry, with Building Information Modelling (BIM) acting as an obligatory passage point and government policies as gate-openers. The article, first, discusses concepts of platform and platform capitalism and indicates how these apply to recent reconfigurations of actor and power relations in the field. Second, it reviews some of the developments in digital architecture from 2D drawings to BIM and beyond. Third, it examines the role of government policies as driving forces in the digital transformation. Forth, it takes a closer look at the case of software producer Autodesk and their BIM product Revit, which illustrates how the logic of platform capitalism has gained traction in architecture and construction. Finally, it concludes that some expectations can be derived from these observations: In the realm of design software, we can expect a further concentration of economic power and a near-monopolistic structure of the market. Moreover, we can expect a shift of focus and investment from architectural design to socio-digital modes of construction and urban planning that benefit primarily real estate owners, investors, developers, and construction companies. Furthermore, we can expect large construction firms to secure themselves a comfortable starting position as early adopters, while SMEs are facing bigger challenges to benefit from the digital transformation. Lastly, we can expect a further encroachment of tech giants and domain outsiders such as Alphabet into architecture and construction, turning buildings and cities into machines for data extraction.}, author = {Braun, Kathrin and Kropp, Cordula and Boeva, Yana}, doi = {DOI: 10.1017/S135913552200046X}, issn = {13591355}, journal = {Architectural Research Quarterly (arq)}, language = {engl}, month = {12}, number = 3, pages = {267-278}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, title = {Constructing platform capitalism: Inspecting the political techno-economy of building information modelling}, url = {https://www.cambridge.org/core/article/constructing-platform-capitalism-inspecting-the-political-technoeconomy-of-building-information-modelling/7BED8136E504706EF8DFE83A7B593120}, volume = 26, year = 2022 }

  @article{Mast:2022:0940-5550:151, abstract = {Building with timber promises many things at the same time: sustainability, economic efficiency, as well as innovative forms and building processes. However, it is disputable to what extent, and under which conditions, timber construction can be considered sustainable. The societal discourse in Germany and France is shaped by four competing visions that favor either 1. a positive CO2 balance, 2. a particularly time- and cost-efficient construction process, 3. the use of regional resources, or 4. the creation of uniquely designed buildings as the guiding principle of future timber construction.The construction industry is one of the biggest sources of greenhouse gas emissions. In view of resource scarcity, climate change, and rapid global population growth, the industry faces the urgent challenge of a sustainable transition. The renaissance of timber as a renewable, carbon-neutral construction material could pave the way for more sustainable modes of building. Taking France and Germany as examples, and based on a sociological discourse analysis, this paper reveals four different and conflicting sociotechnical imaginaries of the future built environment. The four imaginaries show specific characteristics depending on the respective national, political, and cultural contexts. Moreover, they include partially incompatible objectives and compete for discursive hegemony, and thus implementation. Scrutinizing the four competing visions and their approach to conflicts and scarcities raises profound questions about their political, technological, ecological, and social implications.}, author = {Mast, Hanna Sophie}, doi = {doi:10.14512/gaia.31.3.5}, eissn = {2625-5413}, issn = {0940-5550}, itemtype = {ARTICLE}, journal = {GAIA - Ecological Perspectives for Science and Society}, keyword = {Germany, construction industry, discourse analysis, France, timber, sustainable transition of industries, sociotechnical imaginaries, discourse coalitions}, number = 3, pages = {151-157}, parent_itemid = {infobike://oekom/gaia}, publicationdate = {2022-10-20T00:00:00}, publishercode = {oekom}, title = {Conflicting sociotechnical imaginaries of the future built environment: An analysis of current discourses on timber construction in France and Germany}, url = {https://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/oekom/gaia/2022/00000031/00000003/art00007}, volume = 31, year = 2022 }

  @article{buildings12040404, abstract = {Throughout the last two decades the timber building sector has experienced a steady growth in multi-storey construction. Although there has been a growing number of research focused on trends, benefits, and disadvantages in timber construction from various technical perspectives, so far there is no extensive literature on the trajectory of emerging architectural typologies. This paper presents an examination of architectural variety and spatial possibilities in current serial and modular multi-storey timber construction. It aims to draw a parallel between architectural characteristics and their relation to structural systems in timber. The research draws from a collection of 350 contemporary multi-storey timber building projects between 2000 and 2021. It consists of 300 built projects, 12 projects currently in construction, and 38 design proposals. The survey consists of quantitative and qualitative project data, as well as classification of the structural system, material, program, massing, and spatial organization of the projects. It then compares the different structural and design aspects to achieve a comprehensive overview of possibilities in timber construction. The outcome is an identification of the range of morphologies and a better understanding of the design space in current serial and modular multi-storey mass timber construction.}, article-number = {404}, author = {Svatoš-Ražnjević, Hana and Orozco, Luis and Menges, Achim}, doi = {10.3390/buildings12040404}, issn = {2075-5309}, journal = {Buildings}, number = 4, title = {Advanced Timber Construction Industry: A Review of 350 Multi-Storey Timber Projects from 2000–2021}, url = {https://www.mdpi.com/2075-5309/12/4/404}, volume = 12, year = 2022 }

Cities and buildings are taking on a dual existence in analog and virtual spaces. What was once planned as a one-off construction project can now be stored, modified, recombined and reproduced again and again with the help of Building Information Modeling (BIM). If, however, urban planning and building designs are increasingly shaped by new forms of digitally mediated spatial production, echo chambers of digitally conceived and perceived cities could emerge. They could lead to an era of platform urbanism driven by large technology companies with access to planning data in BIM. So far, debates about digital capitalism have focused on citizens' use of cell phones and the World Wide Web, on individual clicks and ephemeral preferences, but not on fixed urban structures and the built environment. The next step, however, could be the digital transformation of structural urban development, an extremely robust business for decades to come. Such a variant of platform capitalism based on building data from urban planning, architecture, and construction would profoundly change cities. We therefore outline the role that digitization, platform capitalism and planning data could play in the future of urban design.}, address = {Bielefeld}, author = {Kropp, Cordula and Braun, Kathrin and Boeva, Yana}, booktitle = {Platformization of Urban Life.
