Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to present developments in architecture and interior design from the perspective of both opportunities and challenges resulting from the far-reaching advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). From generative design to intelligent spatial management, from sustainability analysis to user experiences and preferences, AI is not only redefining the possibilities of creative tools but also proposing its own research paradigms.
In addition, this Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research from global scholars, practitioners, and technical experts to explore how AI empowers design innovation and spatial creation, driving both industry practices and scientific research in architecture and interior design toward an intelligent future.
The following topics are suggested for papers related to architecture and/or interior design, but authors do not have to limit themselves to them:
- Generative and AI-Driven Innovation;
- Performance Analysis and Intelligent Decision-Making;
- Evolutionary Design and Aesthetic Evaluation;
- Human–AI Collaborative Design Paradigm Shifts;
- Deep Learning-Driven Research Paradigms;
- User Experience and Spatial Intelligence;
- Intelligent Construction and Facility Management;
- AI Interventions in Cultural Heritage;
- Cross-Disciplinary Integration;
- Future Directions in the AI Era;
- AI-Powered Design Solutions for Climate Change and Related Challenges.
