Research profile

Alexandros V. E. Ioannou Naoum has been a university assistant at the TU Wien, Institute of High-Rise and Industrial Construction, in the field of integral planning since November 2023. His research focuses on the development of climate-neutral, energy-efficient and circular buildings, as well as the integration of renewable energy systems and passive energy concepts in new and existing buildings. With a particular focus on sustainable optimisation and intelligent technologies such as AI and machine learning, he is working on innovative solutions to reduce resource, CO2 and energy consumption in the construction sector as part of the research project Re_Design.

In my opinion, climate-friendly building will be one of the fundamental tasks of all architects in the future, and in order to reinforce this emerging and de facto inevitable trend, I have decided to dedicate myself to intensive research and discussion in this field and subject area, and thus to contribute to an energy-autonomous and sustainable tomorrow, as well as to a drastic reduction of irreversible environmental impacts to the best of my knowledge and conscience.

Ongoing Research Projects

Re_Design

[Translate to English:] ReDesign

The development of technological possibilities and strategies for a resource-oriented transformation of existing buildings into the future.

Teaching

Focus

In the field of civil and environmental engineering, Alexandros V. E. Ioannou Naoum teaches planning processes with BIM, circular construction, ecological building optimisation and life cycle assessment. He also heads architecture design studios (design) as part of the research project Re_Design, in which conversion concepts for existing buildings are developed together with students, with a focus on adapting existing buildings to climate change and integrating renewable and passive energy systems to achieve their climate neutrality.
