Digital Technologies and Material Passports for Circularity in Buildings: An In-Depth Analysis of Current Practices and Emerging Trends
Abstract The construction industry is undergoing a significant transformation driven by digitalization and an unwavering commitment to implementing circular economy (CE) principles and sustainability into its core practices. Emerging digital technologies (DTs), such as Material Passports (MPs), Building Information Modelling (BIM) Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Scanning technologies, Blockchain technology (BCT), the Internet of Things (IoT) stand out as pivotal tools capable of expediting the transition towards CE implementation in buildings. This study highlights the significant potential of six DTs to support CE application throughout the building lifecycle. Furthermore, it delves into the potential synergies among these diverse DTs, highlighting the additional benefits that collaboration can bring across different lifecycle stages of a building project. Particular emphasis is placed on the integration of MPs with other DTs, showing promise in assessing resource availability, volumes, and flows. This integration optimizes waste reduction and recycling plans, contributing to more precise selective and smart deconstruction planning. The combined use of DTs offers substantial benefits to stakeholders, enabling them to make informed decisions regarding maintenance and understand the current quality of specific materials. Through these means, the study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the array of DTs propelling circular building practices. It also explores emerging trends in this dynamic field, scrutinizing the effectiveness of adopting these technologies throughout the building life cycle stages, and anticipating potential challenges these technologies may face.

Using deep learning to generate design spaces for architecture
We present an early prototype of a design system that uses Deep Learning methodology—Conditional Variational Autoencoders (CVAE)—to arrive at custom design spaces that can be interactively explored using semantic labels. Our work is closely tied to principles of parametric design. We use parametric models to create the dataset needed to train the neural network, thus tackling the problem of lacking 3D datasets needed for deep learning. We propose that the CVAE functions as a parametric tool in itself: The solution space is larger and more diverse than the combined solution spaces of all parametric models used for training. We showcase multiple methods on how this solution space can be navigated and explored, supporting explorations such as object morphing, object addition, and rudimentary 3D style transfer. As a test case, we implemented some examples of the geometric taxonomy of “Operative Design” by Di Mari and Yoo.

AI Diffusion as Design Vocabulary - Investigating the use of AI image generation in early architectural design and education
This paper investigates the potential of Text-to-Image AI in assisting the ideation phase in architectural design and education. The study proposes a structured workflow and tests it with first-year architecture students. It aims to create a comprehensive design vocabulary by using AI-generated images as primary design references and incorporating them into a modelling workflow. The paper implements a process combining specific vocabulary extraction, image generation, 2D to 3D translation, and spatial composition within a six weeklong design course. The findings suggest that such a process can enhance the ideation phase by generating new and diverse design inspirations, improve spatial understanding through the exploration of various design elements, and provide students with a targeted visual vocabulary that helps define design intention and streamlines the modelling process.
