In response to the main topic of the Studio: ‘provide material processes for building with additive manufacturing techniques on site, using highly available/local materials’, the results of this year’s Digital Tectonics Research Studio show a wide range of solutions that go beyond the obvious and open up new paths for architecture and design.
A diverse and highly qualified jury including architects, engineers, physicists and cultural managers was at the final presentation and took a critical view on the projects, gave crucial feed back and provoked interesting discussions.
