Who I Am

My name is Sławomir Klyszcz — an architect, mathematician by training, and systems-oriented thinker working between Europe and North America. My background spans architecture, urban development, BIM-led project delivery, and research into cybernetics and morphology. I have spent years trying to understand how cities actually behave: where decisions break, where systems fail, and where resilience begins.

Before AI became a trend, I was already working at the intersection of architecture, logic, and technological change. This gives me a perspective different from the mainstream architectural narrative — calm, analytical, and grounded in evidence rather than buzzwords. I specialise in clarifying complex mechanisms behind AI, governance, resilience, and spatial systems. My work focuses on how the built environment can remain stable in a time of accelerated transformation.

How I See Architecture Today

Architecture today exists inside forces it can no longer ignore: climate instability, technological acceleration, demographic pressure, and fragile governance. Buildings and cities are no longer passive objects — they are systems shaped by feedback, data, and human behaviour.

Most people in the field talk about AI, resilience, governance, or complexity without understanding the mechanics behind these systems. My work begins there: by making those mechanics clear.

A World Completing a Circle

Humanity is now completing a circle. Two centuries of industrialisation pushed people from land to cities, concentrating labour, knowledge, and infrastructure into dense urban engines. But AI and digital networks are dissolving the need for physical centralisation. Work, services, production, and information are returning to the place where we live.

We are moving from the city back to the land — not backwards, but onto a new layer governed by algorithms, systems, and distributed intelligence. This is the foundation of Distributed Urbanism: the idea that future stability lies in smaller, connected nodes rather than ever-expanding megacities.

A Studio Built on Systems

My approach is built on this systemic understanding. I combine architecture with mathematics, cybernetics, and long-term thinking to analyse how spaces evolve under pressure — how decisions ripple through governance, climate, and technology. I believe that cities and buildings must be understood as dynamic systems, not static forms.

This systemic approach forms the core of my method, expressed through The Four Dimensions of Urban Futures.

The Four Dimensions of Urban Futures

1. Climate Resilience

I design environments that remain stable under climate pressure through adaptive, ecological strategies.

2. Distributed Urbanism

I study the transition from centralised megacities to flexible, networked urban systems.

3. Urban Intelligence

I use data and AI to reveal the hidden patterns shaping cities and to inform clear, responsible decisions.

4. Ethical Governance

I explore frameworks that connect technology, institutions, and citizens through transparency and trust.

Every project, scenario, or strategy I work on uses these four dimensions to reveal what is hidden beneath surface narratives.

Precision Over Spectacle

I believe in restraint.
Not every problem needs a machine.
Not every urban challenge needs density or scale.
Not every use of AI improves design.

I use technology where it creates clarity, not noise.

Design as Continuity

Architecture should support long-term stability — spatial, ecological, and social.
Not fast cycles.
Not short-term consumption.
Not reactive planning.

The goal is continuity:
buildings and systems that endure because they are simple, legible, and resilient.

My Purpose

Alongside architectural practice in Europe and North America, I run KLYZ Studio as a platform for research, consulting, and system-level thinking.

My purpose is simple:

To help others understand the systems shaping our urban future — and to design with clarity, responsibility, and resilience.
