Overview: Offers a bold and materially grounded rethinking of design with artificial intelligence, and proposes a new model of agency distributed across material, artificial, and human actors
Rooted in material philosophy and ecological design thinking, Material and Artificial Intelligence in Architecture establishes a comprehensive framework for understanding AI in architecture. Conceptually rigorous yet accessibly written and visually rich, the book interweaves design, theory, technology, and practice to explore how artificial intelligence, material agency, and human authorship will co-create the built environment of the future.
Challenging both pervasive fear-driven narratives and techno-solutionist hype that dominate public discourse around AI, the book proposes a new plane of engagement―introduced as Shared Materiality. This concept recognizes the entangled agency of human, artificial, and material actors. It also addresses the ethical, ecological, and social implications of AI technologies, including the vast energy demands of AI systems, embedded algorithmic bias, and broader concerns about systemic inequity and access. Specifically within the field of architecture, it critiques the dominance of image-based AI in current architectural discourse and practice, redirecting attention to geometry, morphology, and structure―fundamental spatial dimensions of architecture―and discusses emerging AI models that engage these domains.
