In Episode 64 of PA Talks, we had an inspiring discussion with Jesper Wallgren, a Swedish architect and the co-founder of Finch 3D, a tech firm that integrates AI with architecture to streamline design processes. In the episode, he shares his journey, from how he decided to study architecture to the foundation of Finch 3D.
As the Chief Product Officer (CPO) at Finch, he is responsible for product development and the algorithms utilized in the Finch platform. His short videos showcasing new ways to generate architecture have been seen by millions worldwide. Before co-founding Finch, Jesper worked as an architect and computational designer, developing algorithms in Grasshopper to enhance workflow efficiency at the architecture firm he established with Pamela Nunez Wallgren. He started sharing short videos of these algorithms on social media to exchange ideas with fellow professionals during this time. These videos grabbed the architecture, engineering, and construction industry’s attention and marked Finch’s beginning. Jesper is also the creator of graph technology, which facilitates the use of generative techniques across various features within the Finch platform.
