As the growing presence of AI and increasingly prominent labor shortages took the architecture, engineering and construction industry by storm, computational design was finally at an inflection point.  To stay competitive, all firms, both established and new, leveraged and adapted to the fast-paced technological advances whilst balancing the traditional need for design uniqueness and creativity.

The 8th annual Advancing Computational Building Design 2025 conference brought together leading design professionals to explore how cutting-edge computational methods could unlock a variety of mediums to facilitate project efficiency, enhance creativity, and streamline design workflows.

Whether you were an experienced computational designer or new to the world of digital design tools, and no matter the size of your firm, this event equipped attendees with the knowledge to overcome automation challenges, optimize design outputs, integrate new technologies into traditional workflows, and stay ahead of future developments, such as AI.

With over 100 computational design and technology leaders attending with their architects and engineers, these three days of interactive workshops, expert-led sessions, and extensive networking opportunities truly helped to shape the future of computational design.
