Beyond AI_ded Design:
Looking Forward, Looking Backward

Thirty years after its founding, SIGraDi and the University of Chile invite the academic, professional, and creative community to participate in the 30th international congress of the Ibero-American Society of Digital Graphics, to be held in Santiago at the University of Chile from November 18 to 20, 2026.
This gathering marks a symbolic return to the University of Chile, which hosted SIGraDi 2006 two decades ago under the theme "The Human Factor." At that time, we invited participants to reflect critically on the role humans played in the emerging world of digital design. That critical look at the past—and the future—is more relevant than ever in the face of even more disruptive technologies.
In this spirit, we are proposing the concept of "AI_ded Design," a notion that updates the legacy of CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and projects it toward a new horizon where design, architecture, and urbanism are redefined by algorithmic structures, intelligent environments, and autonomous systems mediated by Artificial Intelligence.
We invite you to think beyond computer-aided design. We aim to open a space for discussion on a form of design where computation—increasingly transparent, ubiquitous, and autonomous—gives way to new forms of cognition, agency, emergence, distributed processes, and a necessary technological ethics that reconfigures design practices.
To stimulate this collective conversation, we propose four open questions:
What have we learned in these 30 years?
What have we improved in these 30 years?
What have we achieved in these 30 years?
What challenges are emerging in the relationship between humans, machines, and environments?

Demolish or renovate?

The ground we walk on is composed of layers of history buried over time: infrastructures, vegetation, animals, and human beings who inhabited these territories form a collection of sedimented layers and historical deposits that combine with geological layers from deep time. This interrelation between the artificial and the geological is especially evident in the forgotten infrastructures buried beneath our cities. How can we unearth both the memory and the material evidence of these? And what does this tell us about what we have collectively forgotten?

The Growarq Week is an event dedicated to architects, engineers, designers, and students looking to revolutionize their design process through a methodology that combines two software programs: Revit and Lumion.
