Stage 8

These projects examine how architectural research transforms materials into new forms of construction. Material libraries, robotic fabrication, adaptive envelopes and 3D-printed earth walls test ways of building with fewer resources and greater environmental awareness. Through prototyping, measurement and fabrication, they explore how material performance can inform architectural form and construction processes.
