Dr Leo Moreton

Assistant Professor

Department: Architecture and Built Environment

Leo Moreton

My primary focuses are, architectural history, technology and digital production. Exploring the implementation of BIM in relation to objects and specification in relation to sustainability and heritage. I am also interested in analogue and digital approaches to architectural design, examining the use of software and the integration of BIM in the design process and visual communication.
