Selected work · 2024 – 2026
01
An AI modelling agent embedded in Rhino that builds native, layered geometry from a written brief or a reference image.
02
From a sketched site boundary to masterplan variations, then zoning, floor areas and a 3D model.
03
A twisted tower, panelled and rationalised, then a reinforcement-learning agent learns to open and fold its skin against the sun.
04
A self-organising map, implemented in C#, that morphs between iconic buildings and maps every shape in between.
05
Evolutionary optimisation of urban form, visualised by a diffusion model fine-tuned on Hejazi architecture.
06
The printed BArch portfolio: five years of architecture in eight chapters: housing, a cultural centre, urban design, two built projects, jewellery, fabrication.
Abdelaziz Awad is a Palestinian architect and computational designer based in London, developing computational workflows that connect design intent with data, simulation and machine learning, from the building to the city.
