How can computational design and robotic fabrication enable the decarbonisation of the built environment while also contributing to making better and more unique buildings, places and cities?
The combination of computational design and robotic fabrication allows for the production of customised architectures that negotiate diverse constraints and desires. This simultaneously offers the possibility of a decarbonised built environment, more unique spatial experiences and buildings that are better suited to their contexts.
The studio is committed to the co-discovery of ways that architecture and design can benefit from, and provide benefit to, Country, respecting the knowledge of traditional Custodians. This studio’s points of entry to this conversation are through local materials and techniques of making, and extreme specificity to context, climate and culture, at the scale of 1:1.
The studio operates in partnership with the Botanic Gardens of Sydney, with projects and sites to be co-developed with the Gardens with the aim of ultimate realisation.
