Emre Taş is an architect, researcher, and artist working across architecture, computation, and spatial experimentation. Educated at the Bartlett School of Architecture, his practice moves between design, installation, and research, engaging architecture as a field shaped by technology, narrative, and material intelligence.
Practice
Through computational processes, digital fabrication, and speculative design, his work explores how space can emerge from systems rather than fixed form. Projects range from structural prototypes to immersive environments, testing architecture as an adaptive and evolving spatial condition.
His work critically examines how computation reshapes architectural thinking beyond prediction, optimisation, and control. It engages incomputability, variance, and deviation as generative conditions within spatial systems, challenging deterministic design paradigms and static construction logics.
Architecture is approached not as a fixed outcome but as an emergent field shaped by material intelligence, distributed processes, and algorithmic uncertainty. Moving fluidly between theory and fabrication, his practice treats design as an open-ended experiment — negotiating contingency, structure, and technological transformation in contemporary spatial production.
