Energy-aware design
Predicting building performance from layout graphs
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have become a popular toolkit for generative floor plan design. Although design variation has improved greatly, few studies consider non- geometrical characteristics, such as building energy performance, in the generative design process. This paper pr

Off-site construction has been a crucial part of industrializing the industry to realize higher productivity, better quality, and a more sustainable approach for constructing buildings. Off-site construction requires decomposing a floor plan into modules that can be in the form o

The use of prefabricated modules can benefit the construction industry with the economy of scales and production efficiency. However, the existing approach to develop module libraries is project-based, lacking the potential to reuse and manage in future projects. By taking the re
