Mathias Bernhard is an architect and computational design specialist. His main research focus is on the creation of design instruments that explore the full geometric potential of additive manufacturing.
He studied architecture at EPF Lausanne and ETH Zurich, where he received his diploma in 2006. After completing his doctoral thesis Domain Transforms in Architecture – Encoding and Decoding of Cultural Artefacts (2019), he served as a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich, at the Polyhedral Structures Laboratory (PSL) at the University of Pennsylvania, and in the Media and Design Laboratory at EPFL. In 2024, he returned to ETH Zurich as a Senior Scientist at Digital Building Technologies (DBT).
