Dr Pieter HERTHOGS

Pieter Herthogs is a Senior Researcher and Investigator at the Future Cities Laboratory Global programme of the Singapore-ETH Centre. His research focusses on developing Design Evaluation and Knowledge Representation approaches that bridge disciplines and domains.

He applies these approaches to three main areas: computational city planning, building adaptation & circular economy in construction, and public space quality.

Pieter is Co-Investigator and Project Leader of the Cities Knowledge Graph project, Co-Investigator of the Circular Future Cities module, and Co-Investigator of the Semantic Urban Elements module.
