Collaborative environment for energy-efficient buildings at an early design stage (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper provides an approach for creating a collaborative environment for energy efficient buildings highlighting the issues required to be addressed at an early design phase. The paper will discuss a design scenario for a new built and suggest sy... Read More about Collaborative environment for energy-efficient buildings at an early design stage.

A new methodology for designing energy efficient buildings in neighbourhoods (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Within the frame of the recently launched EU project “Design4Energy” an attempt is being made to develop a design methodology that is able to create energy-efficient buildings within the context of their neighbourhoods. The work presented in this pap... Read More about A new methodology for designing energy efficient buildings in neighbourhoods.

A multi-functional collaborative design environment (2012)
Thesis

Typical construction projects involving a large number of stakeholders working
together require a tremendous amount of collaboration amongst them. In order to
reduce the cost and length of the project life cycle undertaken by the design team and... Read More about A multi-functional collaborative design environment.

The impact of immersive virtual reality on visualisation for a design review in construction (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Bassanino, M., Wu, K., Yao, J., Khosrowshahi, F., Fernando, T., & Skjærbæk, J. (2010, July). The impact of immersive virtual reality on visualisation for a design review in construction. Presented at 14th International Conference Information Visualisation, London

Communication during the design process has a substantial role because; it exchanges messages and conveys ideas to people with different skills and interests. Also, the development of high quality 3D modelling, photo rendering and VR software has shi...
