Strange Loop Conference | "Designing Fully Rationalized Commercial Buildings with Generative Software" by Jen Carlile @StrangeLoopConf | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Designing a building is a complicated task with dozens, sometimes hundreds of participants. Architects explore the form, mechanical and structural engineers design the building systems, interior architects create spatial test fits, building code experts ensure everything adheres to code, and still others try to predict how the building will function for its end users (is the space functional? enjoyable?). In this talk I’ll share how we’ve built generative software that designs fully rationalized commercial buildings, and measures how they will perform with respect to important metrics like flexibility, carbon footprint, end-user experience, and cost.
Jen Carlile
CTO, Outer Labs
@jencarlile
The intersection of technology and the built environment is a place that Jen has considered home for over a decade. Currently the CTO of Outer Labs, a company she co-founded in 2018 to help real estate owners scale through better technology, Jen brings her extensive background as a software engineer to assist in the development of custom technology solutions targeting the AEC space (Architecture, Engineering, & Construction). Prior to her work at Outer Labs, Jen co-founded Flux Data, a cloud platform spin-off from Google X intended to lower the cost and improve the quality of buildings across the globe.
