ARCHI-MATON

This study is the design of an augmented reality mobile application which allows for real-time scanning and sketch design of architectural structures. The application consists of 4 main functions, including site analysis, programme analysis, design library and material library.
Archi-maton aims to provide an extensive library of design systems and processes which can be accesses to develop on-site designs, along with additional functionalities to upload your own design logic for personalised products 

The capabilities of this application will provide minimal time on conventional production and analysis methodologies, freeing more time for design exploration and real-time visualisation. The generative systems included in the application provide interactive design solutions which are controlled through a defined set of parameters which can be changed at any stage to accommodate the various systems in the building.

 

note: this is a design prototype and is not yet developed
