PROFILE · プロフィール

Welcome ようこそ

Architect and external R&D partner for architecture and engineering practices.

I'm an architect who built the tool he wished existed. I help practices use climate data, computation and AI on real projects, without the hype: I investigate a hard question, prototype it, and show you what is actually possible.

Work with me

Which one sounds like you?

For firms · R&D

An independent R&D partner for architecture & engineering.

You have an interesting problem. It sits somewhere between climate, design and AI, and no one on the team has time to chase it. I investigate it, prototype it, and show you what is actually possible.

R&D研究

Difficult questions, prototyped.

Short, bounded investigations that end in something working, not a slide deck.

Tech & AI技術

Agents that earn their keep.

Finding the specific tasks where AI and agents improve design and business workflows, and building the proof.

Climate気候

From climate data to design decisions.

Translating changing climate conditions into practical implications for sites, assets and projects.

Architecture建築

Principles, made operational.

Daylight, comfort and performance thinking turned into computational workflows your team can run.

New!新着Tech & AI技術

Your First AI Agent

A hands-on live class for architects, engineers and designers, and anyone else who repeats the same task every week. You leave with a small agent that does one real task from your own practice, and a clear sense of where agents help and where they don't. Afterwards, a small group continues as a four-week cohort.

The most sustainable building is the one not built

Retrofit is the right answer. New build will keep happening anyway. Both are true, and that tension is the job.

Three tasks AI actually makes faster in a practice

Iteration speed, environmental and code complexity, and renders you can argue over. Specific tasks, not a revolution.
