Krassimir Krastev graduated from DIA in 2005 with work on computational algorithms and simulations. As teaching assistant in 2005-06, Krassimir established the Design by Algorithm elective and initiated coding as a design method in DIA. Krassimir worked on a wide range of designs as project leader in his professional career as architect. He developed computational methods to generate and optimise intelligent architectonic formations responsive to multiple design constraints such as structural, environmental, as well as aesthetic requirements. He worked for Foster + Partners and Marks Barfield Architects in London before founding his own architecture and design practice. Since 2011, Krassimir is back in DIA, leading the Material Performance Studio and teaching CAD-Logic and Design by Algorithm.
