Founded at UC Berkeley, by Assistant Professor Ramon Weber, the Spatial Systems Lab works at the interface of sustainable construction, digital structural design, building technology and computing.
Ramon Weber earned a PhD as a Presidential Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, where he developed methods for design automation and building simulation that can leverage artificial intelligence in architecture. He has a master’s degree in Media Arts and Science from the MIT Media Lab, the University of Stuttgart’s ITECH program, and holds a bachelor’s in architecture from ETH Zurich. As an architect he worked with Zaha Hadid Architects in London. His personal and professional work has been published and presented internationally in both scientific and design venues such as the Biennale Architettura 2025 in Venice, SF MoMA, Cooper Hewitt or the Journal Nature Communications, Building and Environment and Solar Energy.
