Dalila Romero Zenker

Dalila Romero Zenker is a research assistant at the Creative Robotics Construction Lab (CRCL) EPFL, working on human–robot collaborative workflows. She graduated from the MAS in Architecture and Digital Fabrication at ETH Zürich in 2025, gaining experience in computational design, robotic fabrication, and material-based research.
Her MAS thesis, Post-Processing Strategies for Impact Printed Structures, co-authored with Sian Chen, investigated material redistribution and insulation strategies for robotically printed earthen structures. She holds an Integrated Master’s degree in Architecture and has worked professionally in Switzerland and abroad, from new construction to heritage-protected buildings.
Her interests lie in computational fabrication, material-driven design, and circular construction across contemporary and heritage contexts.

Work Topic

She is currently working on Re:Config at CRCL, exploring adaptive human–robot workflows for timber structures with a focus on reuse. Computer vision and structural feedback are used on‑the‑fly to guide interventions, emphasizing collaborative decision‑making and material‑sensitive actions in real construction contexts.
