Marios Tsiliakos is a partner leading Applied R+D at Foster + Partners with a decade of experience at the intersection of software development, generative design, and architecture. He leverages coding and computational design to automate complex AECO workflows and move from service delivery toward scalable product and tool creation. A UCL-trained specialist in adaptive architecture, he pairs academic teaching and invited tutoring across Europe with hands-on R&D and platform-building (founder of Digital [Sub]stance). His work blends biomimetic thinking and system design—searching for nature-inspired code structures that inform both form-finding and software architecture. Colleagues know him for balancing experimentation with meticulous attention to detail and for enjoying team sports, cinema, and a daily espresso that fuels long design sprints. He’s excited by educating the next generation and pioneering new approaches, even while choosing practical impact over a traditional Ph.D. path.
