Gaming the Future of Architecture
summary
Game engines (Unreal) are used not just for pretty renders but to inject decision logic into buildings: HOK prototypes place an NPC on every chair via the Datasmith importer, generate a NavMesh for walkable paths, and run simple Behavior Trees so noisy occupants trigger others to relocate. A noisy-phone demo shows congestion around a popular space; the pipeline handles point clouds, photogrammetry and rapid batch runs to find design failure modes overnight.
