CAADRIA 2013 Open Systems - Final Call for Papers == Abstract due September 9, 2012
CAADRIA 2013 Open Systems - Final Call for Papers
Abstract due September 9, 2012
Open Systems
The 18th International Conference of the Association of Computer-Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia (CAADRIA)
May 15-18, 2013
National University of Singapore
Contemporary challenges require inclusively integrated approaches to designing. Constrained by established modes of practice, such integration is impossible without a radical commitment to openness. In response to this need, CAADRIA 2013 invites contributions that engage with open systems in all aspects of architectural and urban design: open with respect to the scale of the design objectives and the context, from a building component within a building system to a neighbourhood or city within its urban and rural context; open with respect to the domains being considered, from planning to sustainable performance of a building or city; open with respect to the collaboration of disciplines and participants, from ad-hoc brainstorming to a rigorous process of consultation and feedback; open with respect to design methods and techniques, from physical modelling to digital prototyping; open with respect to design models and representations being adopted, from a parametric exploration to an ontological delineation considering Building Information Modelling, Built Environment Modelling or City Information Modelling; open with respect to the tools and applications being adopted, despite interoperability issues, from modelling to simulation and assessment; open with respect to the learning approach being adopted, from informal interaction and sharing to formal design education; open with respect to the open source approach being adopted in research and development, in order to gather community involvement and use.
By focusing on the theme of Open Systems, CAADRIA 2013 aims to explore all these aspects and more, and raise awareness to the need of overstepping disciplinary boundaries and reaching creative communities at all levels of expertise, by pooling resources, knowledge and practices, and integrating them through the adoption of open systems.
CAADRIA 2013 invites submissions of original research papers on topics in computational architectural design research, including but not limited to the following subjects:
· Computational design research and education
· Modes of production
· Digital fabrication and construction
· New design concepts and strategies
· Mass customization
· Collaborative design
· Digital aids to design creativity
· User participation in design
· Generative, parametric and evolutionary design
· Virtual architecture
· Shape studies
· Virtual reality and interactive environments
· Precedence and prototypes
· Ubiquitous and mobile design computing
· Design tool development
· Human-Computer Interaction

Extreme Affordability session: ACSA 100 Call for Papers
Dear colleagues and students,
Amid the deafening buzz about digital fabrication, you must have wondered about its relevance and value to the most pressing problems facing the people at the "Base of the Pyramid," in all parts of the resource-challenged world. If you did, please consider writing for the following session at the 100th ACSA Annual Meeting in 2012.
Call for Papers
Submission Deadline: September 14, 2011 (But don't wait!)

100_6: DIGITAL GEO-POLITICS
At the Base of the Pyramid: Digital Design and Manufacturing for Extreme Affordability
Mahesh Daas, Ball State U.
Over 4,000,000,000 people live on less than 4 dollars a day. That is 68% of the world’s population. The advanced markets in the West consist of 0.75 billion people, or a whopping 2% of the world’s population. In a few more decades, world population is projected to cross 9,000,000,000 and a large portion of the people living at the Base of the Pyramid. While we often hear about only the social justice and moral arguments about the need to address the needs of the people at the “Base of the Pyramid,” C. K. Prahalad, Mohammad Yunus and others have convincingly demonstrated that the markets at the “Base of the Pyramid” are viable and dynamic markets full of social entrepreneurial potential. The need is there as well as the opportunity. Now we turn to the world of architecture.
Digital design, performance simulation and manufacturing technologies have been buzz words of late in the architectural circles, at least in the West. So far, much of the design and research in these areas within has been aimed at mature and resource-rich markets in highly developed countries that are at the top 2% of the world’s economy. Despite significant advances in manufacturing, business modeling, “reverse innovation” and logistics in general, architectural world remains largely aimed at producing one-off pieces in and for resource-rich markets. Affordability--let alone extreme affordability--remains largely missing from current discourses in architecture. Further, even within USA, there exists a need for extreme affordability in what is now being defined as the “fourth world.” As Vijay Govindarajan pointed out, “reverse innovation” (innovation in developing world for developing and developed world) has been gaining momen
tum, particularly in China and India. While there exist plenty of examples in the industrial and consumer product design domains, we are hard-pressed to find even a handful of examples of innovation for extreme affordability in architecture. Despite all the talk about mass customization, architectural designers seem to place more importance on the “customization” part while ignoring the “mass” part. Moreover, there is a paucity of research on strategies and tactics of how to reach billions of people in the developing world through innovation (not just invention or wild speculation) in all aspects of architecture.
The session invites papers addressing the questions of relevance, means, and methods. What are the technological and design problems of manufacturing buildings or building components or related products for extreme affordability? What are the impediments and opportunities in pursuing innovation for extreme affordability? What are some of the immediate and long term design research questions? How can these questions be integrated into architectural curricula? How can these questions address opportunities for mainstream or alternative professional practices? What are some successful examples that made a difference and hold potential to reach millions if not billions of people at the Base of the Pyramid?

CAADRIA 2012 Beyond Codes and Pixels: Call for Papers - Abstract Due September 5, 2011
CAADRIA 2012
Beyond Codes and Pixels
The 17th International Conference of the Association for Computer-Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia (CAADRIA)
Dates: April 25-28, 2012
Host: School of Architecture, Hindustan University, Chennai, India
Submission guidelines and other information:http://caadria2012.org
From “brick and mortar” to “nuts and bolts”, and on to “codes and pixels”, the scope of architectural design technology, research and education is characterised by continuous expansion. On this journey of enrichment, digitally enabled thinkers help to rethink and to recast the building blocks, perceptive lenses, expressive features and analytical frames of architectural design in particular and of how humans perceive and make choices in general. Acknowledging that the possibilities of current digital processes and tools are far from exhausted, this conference seeks new thoughts, fresh approaches and a surge forward: What comes next?
Digital tools for seeing the new and for choosing what is best are deployed no longer just in the design studio and on the construction site. They mediate performances and experiences of the spaces and constraints of not only the creatively expressible and of the physically inhabitable, but increasingly also of the socially desirable. The organizers of this conference set out to investigate the future role of computer-aided architectural design (CAAD) research in this context.
CAADRIA 2012 invites submissions of original research papers, posters and exhibitions on topics in computational architectural design research, including but not limited to the following areas and aspects:
● Design intelligence and automation
● Design cognition and analysis
● Digital fabrication and construction
● Generative, parametric, and evolutionary design
● Digital documentation and design documentation
● Simulation and visualisation
● Animation and virtualisation
● Human-computer interaction
● Collaborative design
● Education in CAAD
