Der NFS Digitale Fabrikation hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, die Architektur durch einen übergangslosen Prozess von digitalen Technologien zu physischen Bauprozessen zu revolutionieren. Über 60 Forscher aus sechs verschiedenen akademischen Disziplinen arbeiten zusammen, um bahnbrechende Technologien für den Bau von morgen zu entwickeln. Ihre Forschung ermöglicht es der Schweiz, eine führende Position im globalen Bereich der digitalen Fertigung einzunehmen. Der NFS Digitale Fabrikation ist der erste NFS mit Schwerpunkt Architektur und Bauwesen, der vom Schweizerischen Nationalfonds (SNF) finanziert wird. Der an der ETH Zürich initiierte NFS ist Partner der EPF Lausanne, der Hochschule für Technik Rapperswil, der Fachhochschule Luzern, der Fachhochschule Bern und der Empa.
