WALLE: An AI-Driven Sustainability Design Assistant

🌍 Overview

NEBuilder is a platform inspired by the New European Bauhaus (NEB) initiative. It bridges complex sustainability guidelines with practical design implementation using graph-based tools and generative AI.

🎯 Core Objectives

  • Simplify NEB Guidelines into accessible, designer-friendly tools.
  • Focus on Façades, which influence 17% of NEB's metrics.
  • Optimize Early Design Phases for maximal sustainability impact.

🧠 Key Technologies

  • Graph Database: Neo4j
  • Data Processing: pandas, geopandas, tqdm
  • Graph Analysis & Visualization: umap-learn, kumu
  • AI Integration: langchain for natural language Cypher query generation

⚙️ Workflow

  • Upload building models + site location.
  • Auto-fetch weather data and suggest sustainable wall assemblies.
  • Return compliance metrics + material suggestions.

🚀 Planned Enhancements

  • Semantic analysis of textual guidelines.
  • Integration of real-world parametric models.
  • Neural Language Models (NLMs) for advanced querying.

💡 Impact

Facilitates NEB-aligned design decisions by demystifying regulatory complexities and promoting intuitive, data-driven sustainability.
