The NCCR DFBA together with Design++ and ITA re-opened their laboratories for visits by family and friends.

The HiLo (High Performance, Low Emissions) module has been officially opened at the EMPA NEST. The project hosts office, research and innovation spaces in a 2 storey construct defined by an optimised funicular shell concrete roof.

The NCCR Digital Fabrication supported and engaged in the first meeting of “[y]our 2040” a coalition of dedicated leaders, experts, academics and concerned citizens who are committed to sustainable change.

Marco Hutter is head of the Robotic Systems Lab and works on the development of intelligent robotic systems for use in challenging environments.

Today, technology has made progress, but there is still a long way to go.

DFAB HOUSE shows the direction in which construction and the use of concrete could go if the possibilities of digital fabrication are implemented.

An innovative 3D-printed concrete bridge has been unveiled in Venice, Italy which showcases research from the NCCR Digital Fabrication and its associated partners. The bridge demonstrates computational design and multi-axis 3D printing, resulting in a structure that requires no mortar or steel…
