The 9th eCAADe
REGIONAL INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM (RIS2023)
15-16 June 2023 in Tallinn Estonia
Dear Colleagues,
We are very pleased to communicate that the 9th eCAADe Regional International Symposium will be held at Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech), Tallinn, Estonia on June 15th and 16th, 2023. It will be an occasion to meet many of you in Estonia, for two days rich of ideas, discussions, knowledge exchange and collaboration kick-offs regarding innovative approaches supported by computer aided architectural design.
You are invited to submit papers and join the symposium
Regenerating the city. Performance-driven and simulation-based computational design for sustainable cities and communities
SYMPOSIUM THEME
Nowadays, sustainability is in the agenda of most of the countries and international organizations. Among the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, Goal 11 Sustainable Cities and Communities sets specific targets for cities adopting solutions for inclusion, safety, resource efficiency, resilience, mitigation and adaptation to climate change. Further, is increasingly evident among designers and researchers that design methods and solutions doing less harm or with a neutral effect on the environment are not sufficient anymore.
A holistic approach is necessary designing for a positive effect for human health and natural systems as a whole to develop sustainable architecture design solutions as well as regenerative and resilient cities. Computational design allows us to develop workflows considering built environemnt, humans and natural systems as a whole, integrating simulations as bio-climatic, environemntal, materials, energy, behavior and use, and performance as usability, structural, fabrication, comfort, health and costs, at muliple scales.
The symposium and workshops will be a moment of exploration and experimentation of new concepts, methods and solutions to create a positive impact on the urban environment and the city, humans and the natural environment, taking advantage of computational design potential of integrating performance-driven and simulation-based workflows.
Additionally, at the symposium we will explore the potential of computational design in proposing a new architectural paradigm through performance and simulation. Particular emphasis will be given to research showing innovative holistic, multi-disciplinary, multi-domain, multi-scale and multi-objective approaches to guide and support the scientific and design community at large to design sustainable cities and communities.
TOPICS include, though are not limited to:
• Performance and simulation-based digital workflows
• Indoor and outdoor co-simulation workflows
• Climate change adaptation and mitigation
• Building-neighborhood-district scale simulation integration
