Tailored Materiality

Abstract
Computational tools and digital fabrication give us the possibility to have a positive impact in the built environment by enabling us to design more efficient and materially effective structures.

Including intelligence in material systems needs sustained development of computational design and fabrication pipelines. This presentation will give you an overview of my work related centred around such design and fabrication pipelines specifically applied to the architecture and construction sector.

Robotic Building lab at TU Delft develops Design-to-Robotic-Production approaches involving amongst others additive techniques. These advance 3D printing with materials such as thermoplastic elastomers, biopolymers, ceramic clay, and concrete. They involve structural and robotic path optimizations that ensure the reduction of material use and production time, thus increasing efficiency and reducing environmental impact.
