Knowledge Base Repository
In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
Digital twin technology is often overlooked in early architectural design stages, with most studies focusing on final applications and performance evaluation. Our research bridges this gap by exploring hybrid prototypes, combining digital and physical models enriched with sensors by a "foetal" digital twin during conceptual design, representing the eventual "adult" version. Physical twins collect data, while digital twins simulate and optimize within these prototypes. We utilize a foetal physical twin collecting and transmitting data for a more sustainable architectural design process.
