We are a research team dedicated to Formal Methods in Architecture.
We are part of the LIAD - Laboratório de Investigação em Arquitectura e Design (Architecture Research Laboratory), based on ESAP - Escola Superior Artística do Porto (Arts University of Oporto), in Portugal.
Our team also organizes the biennial series of "International Symposia in Formal Methods for Architecture" now in it's 6th edition - 2022
ESAP
ESAP-Escola Superior Artística do Porto is a Arts University in Oporto - Portugal, established in 1982.
The teachings here practiced are the various media that configure contemporary artistic and architectural production.
Through an interdisciplinary practice, students construct their referential field, as a space of confrontation, in which different experiences and multiple theoretical-practical perspectives intersect.

LIAD
LIAD is a center for studies that aims to develop and frame research activities, whether artistic, scientific or of technological development in the disciplinary fields of Architecture, Building and Urban Planning, supporting the development of academical research.
It promotes collaboration with the activities developed under the courses and organizational research units of the ESAP, also seeking to establish a dynamic relationship with the outside world, through protocols of service and collaboration with other institutions.
It promotes the disclosure of the results of research activity, organizing events of scientific, cultural and artistic nature, as well as other kind of similar initiatives.
