Robotic Wire Cutting is a two-week design and building workshop – hosted and supported by Eternit (Schweiz) AG – focusing on the development of novel façade typologies and their digital design and fabrication through 1:1 scale prototypes. As such, participants gained fundamental knowledge in digital fabrication, and, in particular, gathered in-depth knowledge to describe their designs using algorithmic models, generate data for the robotic fabrication and validate their investigations through 1:1 automatically fabricated mock-ups.
The results of the will be exhibited - together with the premiere of a comprehensive film documentation by Marc Schwarz - at the Architekturforum Zurich from February 24, 2016 to March 10, 2016. For more information:
