Dr. Petrus Aejmelaeus-Lindström has been part of Gramazio Kohler Research since 2012. He has led numerous interdisciplinary research projects, industry collaborations, and design studios. In addition to his work at the chair, he serves as the head of the Master of Advanced Studies in Architecture and Digital Fabrication (MAS ETH DFAB) at ETH Zurich.
His research focuses on developing novel digital fabrication processes for sustainable and circular architectural construction. By integrating computational design and digital manipulation, his work transforms construction materials into highly performative systems with minimal environmental impact. This includes exploring in-situ robotic processes, augmented reality, and human-robot collaborative methods, along with corresponding material systems such as jammed granular materials, spatial timber structures, and thermoplastic polymers. His work includes Rock Print (awarded the STARTS price 2017 - The grand prize of the European Commission honouring Innovation in Technology, Industry and Society stimulated by the Arts), Rock Print Pavilion, Eggshell Pavillion and #Caschlats Tower (awarded the Norman Blank Prize for Innovation in Digital Fabrication 2024). As head of the MAS ETH DFAB, a one-year postgraduate program in architecture and digital fabrication, he aims to educate architects and engineers in contemporary digital technologies, including computational design, adaptive robotic fabrication processes, and augmented reality. Architectural design and object-oriented programming remain the backbone of the program. Petrus is an architect who has studied at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Future City Laboratories (FCL) Singapore, and ETH Zurich. |
