A Future of Computational Collaborators: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Landscape Architecture - 1.0 PDH (LA CES/non-HSW)

Bradley is the Chair and Professor of Landscape Architecture at the University of Virginia. He has held academic appointments at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, The Rhode Island School of Design, and the Louisiana State University Robert Reich School of Landscape Architecture. His work in Louisiana over the past decade points to a series of methodologies that develop modes of modeling, simulation, and embedded computation that express and engage the complexity of overlapping physical, cultural, and economic systems. He won the 2012 ASLA Award of Excellence as co-author of Digital Drawing for Landscape Architecture.

Adam is a licensed and practicing landscape architect with over 10 years national and international experience as a landscape architect, contractor, project manager, and presented at past ASLA conferences. He is also co-author, with Professor Bradley Cantrell, of the seminal book “Codify: Parametric and Computational Design in Landscape Architecture.” The book explores the implications of new technologies and computational algorithms in the urban environment and technology applications. He has a Bachelor from Iowa State and Masters in Urban Design from Harvard Graduate School of Design.

Anya Domlesky is an urban designer and landscape architect currently the Director of Research at SWA Group. She runs XL Lab, the firm’s innovation lab undertaking practice-based research. The lab explores near future conditions in the built environment, performs analyses of design performance, experiments with new technologies to create tools for the field, and does topical investigations that address emerging complexities and unprecedented challenges. As a designer, she has worked largely on issues around urbanization, coasts, and water. She holds an MLA from the Harvard Graduate School of Design and an M.Arch II from McGill University.
