Dr. Jinmo Rhee, an Assistant Professor at the School of Architecture, Planning + Landscape at the University of Calgary, is a computational designer, architect, and design scholar whose research is situated within the emerging domain of Spatial Artificial Intelligence in the Built Environment. His work investigates how artificial intelligence and data-driven methods can transform the analysis, generation, and interpretation of architectural and urban spaces. Dr. Rhee holds a Master of Science in Computational Design and a Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University, where his research advanced computational design methodologies through the integration of AI and machine learning. His scholarship proposes new lenses for reading urban and architectural form, develops computational solutions to complex spatial challenges, and explores novel modes of design creativity enabled by intelligent systems. More recently, he has been developing data-scientific frameworks to reinterpret spatial and geometric information, uncovering new design knowledge and generative processes within the built environment.
