Welcome to Automated Data Driven Design
We provide clarity for Architecture practices navigating technology change.
Independent insight, structured advisory, and practical frameworks across BIM 2.0, Generative Design, AI, and digital transformation.
What ADDD Do
ADDD is an independent platform helping architecture practices make better technology decisions.
We combine research, structured advisory, and deep industry insight to reduce risk, clarify workflows, and guide deliberate digital evolution, from BIM 2.0 to AI adoption.
ADDD is led by Allister Lewis - Architect, BIM Manager, and Digital Design Lead, he now acts as a technology translator for the AEC industry - bridging the gap between design, data, and strategic implementation.
What We Focus on
Digital Design Leadership
Supporting the evolution of roles such as BIM Managers and Digital Design Leads - helping practices clarify responsibility, capability, and strategic impact as technology becomes business-critical.
Workflow & Interoperability
Assessing existing workflows, software dependencies, and data flows to identify friction, duplication, and risk, and defining practical improvements through rationalisation, sequencing, and targeted adoption.
Generative Design, BIM 2.0 & AI
Providing structured insight into early-stage design tools, automation, and AI adoption - ensuring new capability integrates with existing workflows rather than disrupting them.
ConTech Landscape Insight
Drawing on a curated database of 1,700+ AEC software tools to provide independent market perspective, benchmarking, and realistic evaluation of what solutions are worth exploring.
