Category: Robotic fabricaton
The introduction of robots into the fields of architecture and construction is revolutionizing how we conceptualize the fabrication process. They are generic machines that are rendered specific and suitable for a certain task through the use of the right tool (end-effector). At first, robots can be a challenge to work with, but they always reward your efforts once you can sit back and let them do all the work. The projects in this category would not have been possible without their contribution.
