Imagine a world where architects and engineers can offload tedious tasks to a digital assistant, freeing their minds to craft visionary designs, all while knowing their data and creativity remain secure. That’s the compelling vision presented at Graphisoft Ignite, held this year in Budapest,

Imagine walking into a brand-new building billed as the pinnacle of modern design, complete with promises of cutting-edge automation and energy efficiency, only to discover that the systems barely talk to each other, the lighting flickers unpredictably, and the HVAC struggles to maintain a

In the fast-evolving world of architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), a silent crisis has been brewing for years—design data, the lifeblood of projects, remains trapped in proprietary software silos, stunting collaboration and innovation. Enter Speckle, a trailblazing open-source cloud

Imagine a world where buildings power themselves, not through sprawling electrical grids or endless battery replacements, but by tapping into the very environment around them—light streaming through windows, heat radiating from walls, or even the subtle vibrations of daily activity. This isn’t a

Cities do not rise on blueprints alone; they hinge on decisions made across hundreds of meetings, models, and jobsite moments, where late information or mismatched assumptions can ripple into delays, change orders, and spiraling costs. As architecture leans into a connected, model-centric practice,

Relentless grid volatility, rising carbon targets, and stubborn HVAC loads have made building operations a moving target that traditional rule-based controls simply cannot track fast enough to keep comfort steady and costs in check. That gap is why artificial intelligence has moved from novelty to
