The first part introduces a machine learning model that classifies spaces by incorporating spatial quality data such as visual and topological relationships, capturing functional patterns across iconic 20th-century floor plans. The second part presents a generative model that creates open-plan layouts from given boundaries, encoding spatial functions through gradient color representations. Together, these approaches demonstrate how AI can both interpret and generate architectural logic\u2014supporting flexible and data-driven design processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Biography:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Berfin Y\u0131ld\u0131z is an architect and researcher specializing in soft computational design and artificial intelligence.
