Image © Foster + PartnersOver the last decade, architectural design has relied on 2D methods of representation, such as elevations, sections, and floor plans, paired with digital renderings of 3D models. While these tools are essential to convey geometry and intent, they remain limited by their two-dimensional format. Even the most realistic renderings, created through programs like SketchUp, Revit, or AutoCAD, still flatten space and distance the viewer from the lived experience of a project. Recently, architects have begun to explore immersive technologies as a way to bridge this gap between drawing and experience, offering new ways to inhabit and assess spatial proposals.What are AR, VR, and MR?Extended Reality (XR) can be classified into three main types: Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR), each offering varying levels of immersion in digital environments. At one end of the spectrum, AR enhances the real world with digital content, while at the other, VR fully immerses the user in a completely virtual environment, blocking out the physical world. MR lies between these extremes but is essentially a more detailed classification of AR based on the type of display used. Their research proposes the following classification: Class 1 display refers to monitor-based systems, where users view the real world through a screen equipped with a camera that captures the environment and overlays digital information, such as in the Apple Vision Pro, which uses passthrough cameras. In contrast, Class 2 and 3 systems use head-mounted displays (HMDs) with see-through lenses that superimpose 3D models onto the user's view, like the Microsoft HoloLens. In 2020, Trimble combined the HoloLens with a hard hat, creating the Trimble XR10, which makes this technology usable in the construction site. For clarity, this text will refer to Class 1 systems as AR and Class 2 and 3 systems as MR moving forward.

The way users interpret a space depends not just on geometry, but also on intuition, their individual knowledge, and experiences. Kevin Lynch described this as a space's "legibility," or how easily it can be understood and organized mentally, while Ittelson (1978) emphasizes how users explore, categorize, and systematize spatial elements into a coherent whole. The user first explores an area to orient themselves and move around, then they will develop a taxonomy of the space elements to mentally organize it, and finally, they put everything together into a system that tells the brain why things are happening and how they relate to each other. Research suggests that immersive environments such as mixed reality can simulate this faithfully, allowing architects and clients alike to engage with a design not as an abstract plan, but as a place to walk through, observe, and interpret.Save this picture!Which One Improves Design Understanding: 2D Drawings or MR?Based on the above, a study made by the National Taiwan University in 2021 explored this topic by conducting an experiment where participants were brought to a room and were divided into two groups. The first would analyze an interior design proposal of the space using printed architectural drawings and colored renderings. The second group was asked to do the same but only used the explorable MR 3D model seen through an MR headset, in this case: The HoloLens. After the exploration was done, users would sit down, and researchers would ask questions about the space. For example, the general understanding of the elements in the architectural program, how well people perceive length and sizes of objects, perception and understanding of textures and materials, and knowledge of demolition or renovation of specific elements. A total of 42 people participated in the research, with an average age of 26 years, various ranges of architectural drawing understanding, and from diverse cultural backgrounds, including Africa, the Middle East, Asia, the Americas, and Europe. The results shed light on several topics for architects looking into implementing this technology in their work.Save this picture!First, the study suggests that MR technology allowed users to understand around 85% of the overall design proposal compared to 2D methods (which allowed participants to obtain only around 75% of the information). At the same time, they also concluded that MR does not fully replace 2D; in fact, it's about balance. Both MR and 2D are suitable for identifying spaces and general layout, identifying where activities can be performed, and identifying heights. However, 2D plans are especially good for specific measurements of the space (Length and width), understanding the demolition plan, and identifying countable elements in the design, like the number of lamps, switches, or sockets. On the other hand, MR was better for understanding how elements in the space interact with each other (Like if the columns were wrapped by a specific material). MR  was especially useful for quickly identifying the specific materials and textures of the design and visually understanding size in terms of width, and mentally perceiving certain properties of materials like roughness, smoothness, warmth, or coldness.Save this picture!How Can We Integrate MR into our Current Design Review Workflows?MR has the potential to facilitate inclusive and interdisciplinary collaboration by bridging the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders. Clients or end users with limited experience in reading architectural drawings often struggle to visualize how a space will look or function. AR, especially through Mixed Reality headsets, can mitigate this by allowing them to engage with the space intuitively. Given the transparent property of the MR lenses, non-architect users can experience the spatial and material qualities of a design proposal directly on-site, making it easier to identify potential issues such as circulation conflicts, scale misinterpretations, or material inconsistencies. This allows them to give feedback that is grounded in their own perceptual experience rather than abstract interpretations. This can help to democratize the design review process and can lead to more informed, client-centered decisions. For architectural teams, combining MR with traditional tools might mean that their detailed technical evaluations (e.g., clearances, counts, and demolition plans) are complemented by a richer experiential understanding from the client, which can lead to more holistic and user-validated design outcomes.Save this picture!This article is part of the ArchDaily Topics: What Is Future Intelligence?, proudly presented by Gendo, an AI co-pilot for Architects.

uflypro - stock.adobe.com News Ireland sets out chip plan Ireland has a long history of attracting high-tech firms. Building on the EU Chip Act, it now aims to be a leader in semiconductors By Cliff Saran, Managing Editor Published: 20 May 2025 14:45 The Irish government has unveiled a semiconductor strategy in alignment with the European Chip Act. Silicon island: A national semiconductor strategy sets out a clear roadmap to grow Ireland’s semiconductor sector by creating high-value jobs, attracting major investment and deepening the country’s leadership in cutting-edge technology as a key player in Europe’s semiconductor future. The Irish government aims to become a leader in the semiconductor industry by building on its track record in technology development, capitalising on existing strengths and taking proactive, strategic actions to address emerging challenges. In 2023, the European Union (EU) set out plans to secure the supply of semiconductors and drive chip development across the region. The EU Chip Act commits €43bn of policy-driven investment until 2030, funding a number of initiatives including next-generation technologies and providing access across Europe to design tools and pilot lines for the prototyping, testing and experimentation of cutting-edge chips. Ireland – which is home to over 130 semiconductor companies, directly employing 20,000 people and generating €13.5bn in annual exports – is building on the EU Chip Act. The Irish strategy aims to foster the further growth of Ireland’s semiconductor ecosystem over the coming decade in support of the European Chips Act and Digital Decade ambitions through three strategic strands: strengthening the existing ecosystem, ensuring a robust national talent pipeline, and seizing industry opportunities. Key deliverables include publishing a comprehensive mapping of Ireland’s semiconductor ecosystem, fostering connections between research and innovation clusters, and engaging the education system to meet growing talent demands.

Could US tech be in the firing line? The challenges of securing a UK semiconductor supply chain: The UK’s national semiconductor strategy aims to establish the country's credentials as a leader in the sector. We look at how it stacks up. Speaking at the launch, minister for enterprise, tourism and employment Peter Burke said: “Ireland already has a strong semiconductor base. But with the right support, I believe we could do far more. By 2040, Ireland could support up to 34,500 new semiconductor roles.” The overall goal of the Irish chip strategy is to ensure there is a secure supply chain for semiconductors in Europe by building on Ireland’s already well-established semiconductor footprint. Integrated device manufacturers including Intel, Analog Devices and Infineon have facilities in Ireland. Fabless manufacturers including Apple, AMD and IBM also have sites in Ireland, as do firms like ARM, AutoCAD and Siemens, which provide chip design, and design and testing software for chipmakers. Photolithography equipment manufacturer ASML also has an Irish facility. The multi-faceted strategy involves securing major industrial investments, with ambitious plans to establish a leading-edge chip fabrication facility, two trailing-edge foundries and an advanced packaging facility. Ireland also aims to develop next-generation sites with the infrastructure needed to support large-scale manufacturing and support startups and spinouts with access to finance. The Irish government also aims to enhance research and development, by supporting both indigenous innovation and multinational collaboration and fostering an open ecosystem based on collaboration. Overall, it wants to ensure Ireland is regarded as a hub of excellence in semiconductor design, manufacturing and research. Ireland has established a national competence centre for semiconductors under the European Chips Act. It has also collaborated with Analog Devices and 14 EU member states as part of the EU’s €8.0bn Important Projects of Common European Interests initiative to support microelectronics and communications.
