Thoring, K.C. (author), Gonçalves, M. (author), Mueller, Roland M. (author), Desmet, P.M.A. (author)The question of how the physical work environment can affect creativity is gaining interest among companies and educational institutions. This paper introduces ten propositions outlining possible relationships between spatial characteristics and creative work. The propositions were developed following a grounded-theory approach based on nine...journal article 2021

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Ekici, B. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)Most of the architectural design problems are basically real-parameter optimization problems. So, any type of evolutionary and swarm algorithms can be used in this field. However, there is a little attention on using optimization methods within the computer aided design (CAD) programs. In this paper, we present Optimus, which is a new...journal article 2019

Walker, Cameron (author)The title of the research, and consequently the guiding principle behind the design, making is thinking, stemmed from a frustration with the often-held view that the latter is of greater importance than the former. That thinking, as our intellect of the mind, is of a superior motive to the things we do or make with our hands, and this is a...master thesis 2018
