Human-Centered AI-Driven Architecture

Design intelligence for one planet.

Computational methods and AI systems for architecture that is built to matter — from sustainable materials research to robotic production.

MSG Sphere, Las Vegas — OnceMore computational design work

Positioning

Not an image factory. A design systems practice.

OnceMore is a Vienna-based computational design studio. We don't produce renders of buildings that will never exist. We build computational systems that make real structures lighter, smarter, and less wasteful.

From EU-funded sustainable materials research to robotic house production, our work spans the full spectrum of how buildings can be rethought for one planet.

Practice Areas

One mission, four disciplines.

Design Intelligence

AI is not a render engine. We build MCP servers that connect large language models to real design tools — Revit, Rhino, structural analysis — so intelligent agents can understand geometry, codes, and context. RAG systems that learn from project libraries, and asset databases that grow smarter with every use.

  • MCP integrations for Revit and Rhino
  • RAG-based retrieval over project knowledge
  • Online asset libraries with semantic search
  • AI agents that participate in design, not just generate images

Facade & Structure

Complex geometry demands complex logistics. We automate the bridge between architectural intent and fabrication reality — steel, glass, aluminium — with precision down to 0.01 mm. This is where computational design meets the factory floor.

  • Parametric envelope rationalization
  • Automated CAD-FEM optimization loops
  • Production data: CNC files, drawings, assembly logic
  • Proven on MSG Sphere, Kuwait Airport, Bloomberg, KAPSARC

Sustainable Materials

At AlgoLoam we are developing recyclable loam wall systems through EU-funded research. Algorithmic design meets earth construction — turning one of humanity's oldest materials into a precision-engineered, zero-waste building component.

  • EU-funded research programme
  • Algorithmically optimized earth-based wall systems
  • Full lifecycle recyclability — cradle to cradle
  • Material science meets computational geometry

Integrated Production

With Dr. Milos Dimcic As Head of Design Automation at Cosmic Buildings, we are pushing the boundaries of complete vertical integration. In the Cosmic example we are building a full house configurator that generates an entire digital twin ready for robotic production. Design, engineering, fabrication data, and assembly instructions from a single parametric source.

  • Full house configurator → digital twin → robotic production
  • Vertical integration from client brief to factory floor
  • Mass customization without mass complexity
  • Parametric systems that eliminate manual rework

Vision

Architecture should serve life, not spectacle.

We believe every design decision carries material, ecological, and human weight. Computation exists to make those decisions better — not to generate more images.
