Alisa Andrasek

Alisa Andrasek is a Professor at RMIT University's School of Architecture, Urban and Design (AUD). She leads research at the intersection of design, computational science, and exponential technologies, focusing on high-resolution architecture, robotic fabrication, and AI-driven design processes. Previously, she directed the award-winning Advanced Architectural Design program at UCL and co-founded Biothing, an experimental design lab, as well as AI Build, a robotic fabrication studio.

• Affiliations: RMIT University, AI Build, Biothing
• Research Focus: Generative algorithms, computational physics, robotic fabrication, and AI in architecture.
• Exhibitions: Featured at Centre Pompidou Paris, Venice Biennale, and Sydney Biennial.

Her work explores 'data materialization,' creating intricate structures through algorithms and robotic processes. Projects include the Cloud Pergola (Venice Biennale), XenoCells, and MorphoCyte, which blend biological processes with computational design. She supervises research in topics like 'Integral Architectural Design Synthesis in the Metaverse' and 'Generative Practice Research.'

Alisa advocates for architecture that resonates with ecological complexity through high-resolution microstructures and adaptive systems. Her teaching integrates cutting-edge technologies like machine learning and large data analytics into design pedagogy.
