Alexandros Christodoulou is a graduate of the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Patras (2010) and the MsC program in Building Engineering of TU Delft (2013). From 2013 to September 2021 he worked as an engineer specialising in Parametric Design at Arup's Amsterdam office. He has published his research at conferences such as IASS, Design Modeling Symposium and SIMAUD, and has taught digital architecture and modeling at TU Delft and KU Leuven. He is a PhD candidate in the Department of Architectural Engineering of the University of Thessaly since March 2022.

The topic of his doctoral dissertation is Digital Extensions of Architectural Design through Parametric Design, Algorithms and Artificial Intelligence. More specifically, it studies the effect of the following technology innovations on modern architectural design: 1. algorithmic simulations of the environmental, structural and user experience performance of a building 2. use of Artificial Intelligence to create surrogate models for time consuming simulations 3. generative algorithms, a subcategory of parametric design that is capable of generating and suggesting forms to the designer in accordance with the selected design logic and boundary conditions 4. optimization algorithms through which optimal combinations for the input design parameters of a building can be identified 5. Advanced Digital Design software, able to integrate such design analysis tools with advanced data analytics, accommodating an in-depth analysis of the design space
