"Responsive Acoustic Surfacing", Photo: Anders Ingvartsen SmartGeometry was established in 2001 as an international group of academics and professional architects, engineers, computer scientists and designers interested in the potentials of parametric design and computational tools.
Each year, a four-day workshop precedes a conference day with invited speakers, and each year explores a different theme. The workshops, hosted by the Center for Information Technology and Architecture (CITA) in Copenhagen Denmark, involved about one hundred selected participants working in workshop or “cluster” groups on a specific design challenge. Each group designed and fabricated something in four days, in inspiring and intense surroundings, learning and sharing skills. Unit 1. Auburn University.
