Phillip G. Bernstein
Phillip G. Bernstein is an American architect, technologist, and educator.[1][2][3][4] He is a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects (FAIA), a member of the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA) and a LEED Accredited Professional.[5] He is a licensed architect in California.[1]
Bernstein has taught at the Yale University School of Architecture since 1989 and is currently Deputy Dean and Professor Adjunct.[1] He developed the practice curriculum at Yale School of Architecture and has taught courses focusing on professional practice, the business models and value propositions of the architectural profession, and artificial intelligence.[1] Starting in 2020, he co-taught courses on forced labor in the building supply chain with Ambassador (Ret.) Luis C.Debaca.[1][6]
Bernstein was formerly a vice president at Autodesk,[7] where he was responsible for setting the company’s AEC vision and Building Information Modeling (BIM) strategy that included the development of the Revit platform.[4][8][9] He was the executive responsible for Autodesk’s award-winning Waltham AEC Headquarters, a pioneering example of integrated project delivery (IPD) projects.[10]
Prior to joining Autodesk, Phil practiced architecture as an associate principal at Cesar Pelli & Associates (renamed to Pelli Clarke & Partners in 2021) where he managed projects including Ronald Reagan National Airport, the Mayo Clinic, UCLA, and Goldman Sachs.[1]
Bernstein writes extensively on issues related to practice and technology and has contributed to numerous architectural magazines, books, and journals.[11][12][13] His most recently published book, Machine Learning: Architecture in the Age of Artificial Intelligence (2022), explores the impact of artificial intelligence and machine learning on the field of architecture.[14][15]
