Traditional interior design largely relies on anthropometry, which is based on human measurements as a guideline to design spaces. This research introduces the idea of designing spaces beyond anthropometry, considering the needs of other species. However, this only considers canine beings who are non-humans to understand the idea of beyond anthropometry better. This research aims to develop a framework for canine users based on their measurements and spatial requirements extracted from an extensive research study from veterinary and design to learn about their dimensions and daily activities. The goal is to stream the thought process for designing spaces that include human and canine users from the design phase. This research looks into the different breed's behavioral and physical traits and translates these inputs into design principles or interior spaces. The design project “Unleashed - A Canine Re-homing Centre” acts as a practical example of developed principles depicting how caninometry enhances the well-being of human and canine users. The research highlights the importance of the diverse needs of all users, including humans and non-humans, in interior design. It emphasizes the need for a more inclusive and well-rounded design that creates room for all the users in the interior spaces.

This process takes place in physical spaces known as design studios that provide appropriate support to students. However, not all design studios effectively support this creative process, as observed in the design studios of the Architecture Department at the Mayor de San Andrés University in La Paz, Bolivia. For this reason, this research aims to transform these Design studios into creative spaces to promote students' creativity during the design process. To achieve this objective, a qualitative methodology is applied, combining theoretical research on creativity, creative processes, design studios, and creative spaces with spatial research through the case study method applied to design studios. This approach enables the contrast of the theoretical findings with the reality of the Talleres/Design Studios of the Architecture Department to establish guidelines for their reconfiguration. From this contrasting process, five categories are identified: distribution and function characterized by space versatility, relationship between inside and outside, incorporation of rest and recreation areas in direct relation with workspaces, versatile furniture and equipment, and work environment adaptable to activities of the design process. These categories are materialized through an interior design proposal for an Experimental Creative Center.

The focus is on innovative designs capable of withstanding nuclear impacts and other physical threats, ensuring the safety of people and the continued functionality of urban spaces. Instead of merely reacting to threats, this study investigates proactive measures, identifying and evaluating new design principles that integrate advanced defensive features into urban buildings. A key element of this thesis is the design project VAULT 66, a speculative urban fortress in Berlin. VAULT 66 is intended to protect inhabitants from nuclear and physical threats, demonstrating how fortified structures can be combined with livable spaces. This project provides a practical example of the research, showing how resilient architecture can be incorporated into urban planning to create secure yet comfortable environments. The aim is to influence urban planning policies, promoting the adoption of robust protective measures that can reduce human and economic losses during crises. Ultimately, this thesis underscores how architecture, inspired by military strategies, can create urban environments that are not only secure but also support the well-being and prosperity of their residents. 4Item Restricted The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Design Thinking in Interior Architecture : Fostering Creativity and Problem-Solving in a New Era(2024) Matar, Yasmeen Adeeb Mahmoud; Martín, Javier; Ugarte, Juan Pablo; Faculty of Architecture and Design; Berlin International University of Applied SciencesAUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates the impact of artificial intelligence on interior architecture, it explores how AI is shaping the design thinking process, increasing creativity and enhancing problem-solving skills. Technologies such as generative design, machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, offer interior designers, powerful tools, that not only increases the human creativity, but also the streamline of the design process. These tools enable designers to generate and evaluate multiple design options and enhance factors like performance material efficiency and sustainability. Additionally, AI driven tools facilitate collaboration between humans and AI, making design solutions more efficient and effective opening a wide range of creative possibilities. The use of AI into interior architecture, introduces innovative methodologies and approaches that improve the traditional design workflow. AI systems can analyze large amounts of data and offer design insights that would be difficult to achieve manually. AI designers can focus more on developing concepts, making the design process more intuitive and altered to the user needs. However, the implementation of AI and interior architecture also brings ethical issues, such as data privacy, and algorithmic bias. Addressing these challenges is important to ensure that they are technologies used in a responsible and ethical way. This thesis aims to connect the knowledge gap by analyzing how AI influences interior architecture, highlighting both the benefits and challenges of AI integration. Through comprehensive research as examples. This study shows how AI can be a powerful assistant in creating innovative, efficient, and user centered interior environments.
