The construction industry is in a state of rapid evolution. New digital design techniques are revolutionizing the way that buildings are designed, and, as with the car industry in the past, robotic fabrication technologies are having a major impact on the way that buildings are constructed. Together they are changing the way we think about the design and construction of cities in the 21st century.
This exhibition of digitally and robotically fabricated work by international architectural innovators and students offers a tantalizing window to the future of architectural design and building construction while demonstrating an environmentally-friendly, economic, and efficient method of construction.
The Exhibition will be open to the Public Weekdays: August 15 - September 9, 10AM - 6 PM.
