Albert Wiltsche

Albert Wiltsche is an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Architecture and Media, Graz University of Technology. His academic journey began with studies in descriptive geometry and mathematics at Graz University of Technology and Karl-Franzens University of Graz, followed by a doctorate in 2000 with a dissertation titled "Interpolation of Points of a Regular Triangular Grid." He has been actively involved in teaching and research since 1994, transitioning from a contract assistant at the Institute of Geometry to his current role since 2007.

• Education: Graz University of Technology (PhD in Geometry, 2000), Karl-Franzens University of Graz (Mathematics), Graz University of Technology (Descriptive Geometry).
• Research Focus: Geometric applications in architecture, parametric modeling, digital fabrication, folding structures, and free-form surface discretization. His work explores the intersection of mathematical precision and architectural creativity, particularly in non-standard geometries and sustainable systems.
• Collaborations: Frequently works with Milena Stavric on projects like "Parametric Kirigami" and "Interactive Spots," integrating digital tools into architectural education and practice.
• Projects: Led FWF-funded research on "Non-standard Architecture with Ornaments and Planar Elements," emphasizing material efficiency and aesthetic control in curved surfaces.
• Publications: Over 84 research outputs spanning computational geometry, digital fabrication strategies, and pedagogical innovations in architectural education.
