DESCRIPTION:Kean Walmsley & Dagmara Szkurlat from Autodesk Research\nKean 
 Walmsley and Dagmara Szkurlat\, both Senior Managers in Human-Centric Buil
 ding Design at Autodesk Research\, will present their ongoing research pro
 jects in Fribourg. Meet the scientists invited by Prof. Andrew Sonta\, Hea
 d of EPFL ETHOS Lab\, on Thursday\, 11.05.2023\, from 11:30 to 12:30\, at 
 the blue Hall of bluefactory (room HBL0 21A). A non-disclosure agreement f
 orm will have to be signed by the participants on site for confidential re
 asons. No online streaming available.\n\nAutodesk started its research int
 o designing human-centric buildings more than a decade ago. Over the last 
 year Autodesk Research has created a larger\, more coordinated effort that
  leverages this deep experience to imagine future design workflows and tec
 hnologies that will help architects and building designers create building
  designs that are suited to the diverse and evolving needs of their occupa
 nts. During this talk\, Kean and Dagmara will introduce Autodesk’s curre
 nt work and future plans in this exciting space.\n\nKean Walmsley is a Sen
 ior Manager and Software Architect working at Autodesk Research in Switzer
 land. He is currently leading the effort to build tools for Human-Centric 
 Building Design\, having worked previously on related projects around digi
 tal twins and generative design. Kean has worked in various roles – and 
 in various countries – during his career at Autodesk\, including buildin
 g and managing teams of software developers in Europe\, the Americas and A
 sia/Pacific. Kean engages regularly with Autodesk’s developer and comput
 ational design communities\, providing technical content and insights into
  technology evolution.\n\nDagmara Szkurlat is a Senior Manager working at 
 Autodesk Research in London\, UK. With a background in mechanical engineer
 ing she has worked on projects to develop generative design algorithms acr
 oss manufacturing and AEC industries. Dagmara is co-leading the effort aro
 und Human-Centric Building Design\, harnessing her background in generativ
 e design and spatial computing to help imagine architecture workflows of t
 he future.
