Impossible Architecture is a concept project that allows to create virtual architecture with the help of AI. It is a reflection on what architecture tends to be about these days (in the real world), namely circular building, and not creation from scratch.

The project also serves educational purposes, as it provides an organized database for successfully accomplished architectural redevelopments and thereby contributes to the spread of Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling ideas in architecture, especially in the context of social housing. In the virtual world, one can play around with architecture creation, while in reality making a responsible choice on which projects to support, where to choose to live, and how our decisions are influencing the society.
