Tailored materiality Research
Tailored Materiality Research focuses on the relationship between geometry, design, fabrication, and construction. The group develops lightweight flexible (formwork) construction systems that promote efficient use of material in the design and construction of complex (concrete) structures.
This includes using structural principles to create sound and appealing designs through form-finding techniques. The group also develops computational tools and pipelines that reliably encode physical material behavior during fabrication, combining various digital manufacturing technologies.
