Design Across Scales – Additive Manufacturing in Construction

27 March 2025

Additive manufacturing is changing what can be built in architecture, because it removes the link between geometric complexity and cost and lets material go only where it is needed. This talk follows that idea across scales, from the material and the building component to full-size structures such as the 3D-printed concrete columns of the Tor Alva tower, and shows how computational design and digital fabrication can make construction more resource-efficient and more expressive.
