In his exhibition Reform Standard, architect and designer Chien-hua Huang explores a circular waste economy and the potential of viewing the life cycles of materials such as plastic holistically by means of artificial intelligence. This would consequently revolutionize the definition of “zero waste.”

In the context of his research project of the same title, he developed a search algorithm driven by machine learning, which aims at promoting a material-informed design cycle and transforming plastic waste into potential resources by means of reinforcement learning and automatic image processing.

Based on drawings, physical models, and videos, the project shows how differently humans and machines perceive waste and which potential is consequently lost or gained.

Other than humans, artificial intelligence analyses and classifies form and material composition based on data. It groups the perceived waste without any bias regarding its “value.” Hence, views it in a more “objective” way. The production of a plastic shell exemplifies the function of the search algorithm: successful recycling of plastic waste creates a closed design cycle that functions without any further waste.

Chien-hua Huang completed his graduate degree in “Architecture: Architectural Design 2,” headed by Prof. Greg Lynn, at the University of Applied Arts Vienna in 2020. The architectural designer and design researcher works in Taipei and Vienna.
