Book Launch! Arash Soleimani’s new book Designing with Algorithms: A Mathematical Guide is out now via Routledge! This essential guide explores how mathematical thinking and computational logic are transforming design across scales and disciplines, from architecture and typography to textiles and urban planning. Whether you’re a student, educator, or creative practitioner, this book bridges theory and hands-on application with platform-independent tools and strategies. Available now at Routledge: use the code ADC25 for a launch discount! i-archstudio.com/book Link in Bio! #DesigningWithAlgorithms #WSOA #DesignComputation #AlgorithmicDesign #ParametricDesign #wsoa #faculty #news #ComputationalDesign #CreativeCoding #MathematicsInDesign #GenerativeDesign #Routledge #BookLaunch #iarchstudio

My Analogy of Visual Scripting (VS) to ‘Making a Cheese Sandwich’. . Visual Scripting is increasingly becoming popular among architects, designers, artists and animators. VP platforms allow designers to manipulate visual elements to make a program, as opposed to text-based programing languages, which one has to write lines and lines of code to make a program. . #iarchstudio #computationaldesign #generativedesign #generativeart #visualscripting

Great spending time at California College of the Arts this weekend and joining the final reviews. Always inspiring to see the range of ideas, research and design work coming out of the studios. As a partner institution, we’re committed at Woodbury to support CCA students through the teach-out process for both MArch and BArch programs, and to help continue their academic journey. Thank you for the warm welcome and great conversations @cca_arch_div #DesignEducation #ArchitectureSchool #FinalReviews #CCA

Wrapped up an inspiring few days at the ARCC-EAAE International Conference, Local Solutions for Global Issues, hosted by @kennesawstateuniversity in Atlanta. Great keynotes by @jaronlubin (@safdiearchitects ), Martha Thorne (@ieuniversity ), and Frank Barkow, each offering thoughtful perspectives on the evolving role of architecture in addressing global challenges. Had the pleasure of co-presenting our paper with Giovanni Loreto on “Multi-Objective Beam Optimization: A Metric-Based Design Framework for Sustainable and Efficient Construction” and later moderating a panel on AI and its growing impact on the built environment. #ARCC2026 #ArchitectureResearch #DesignEducation #iarchstudio

A school shaped by transformation. 1884 — founded as a business college in Los Angeles.
1937 — relocation to a purpose-built Streamline Moderne campus on Wilshire.
1987 — move to Burbank, adapting the former Villa Cabrini site.
2005 — establishment of the Julius Shulman Institute, extending discourse on architecture and representation. Today, @woodbury_university operates at the intersection of architecture, design, media, and its long-standing business foundation, continuing a trajectory of adaptation and interdisciplinary practice. In partnership with @universityofredlands , this trajectory now expands across campuses and fields. Image credits: WU Archives; Calisphere; LA Public Library; Exceleration Project Management; C.
