High Resolution Fabric of Architecture

For the first time in history, design and architecture can start to approach the extreme resolutions found in nature. In this forum Alisa Andrasek will talk about her recent research projects – high resolution structures designed with algorithms and built by robots.

She will talk about how we can now design and construct across many orders of scale, from material science to large scale design ecologies, from micro to macro – and how this research informed her latest work, Cloud Pergola (Croatian National Pavilion, Venice Biennale).

This forum will took place on 1 August.

A livestream of Alisa's talk will be available here at 3pm
