About
Andrew Vande Moere is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of architecture, human-computer interaction, and robotics, whose work is reshaping how we conceive of and inhabit built environments. His research centers on **responsive and adaptive architecture**, exploring how intelligent, robotically actuated spaces can dynamically respond to human needs — from acoustics and privacy in open-plan offices to the orchestration of spatial experiences through mobile partitions and room-defining elements. Among his most influential contributions is a sustained body of work examining human-building interaction, including frameworks developed through cross-reality and semi-immersive methodologies (20–23 citations), and empirical studies of semi-autonomous robotic partitions mediating workplace comfort. His investigations into **digital fabrication** are equally distinctive: through concepts like "material sketching," fabrication grammars, and interactive robotic clay carving, he challenges the linearity of conventional design workflows, advocating for processes where material agency and maker intuition remain central even in automated contexts. Vande Moere's research has attracted growing scholarly attention across architecture, HCI, and human-robot interaction communities, with his most cited work accumulating dozens of citations within just a few years of publication. His co-design and participatory methods reflect a deep commitment to ensuring that technologically transformed spaces remain genuinely human-centered.
