Areas of Expertise
Our work redefines what’s possible in architecture, design, and construction through a seamless fusion of computation, robotics, and material understanding. Within our taught university courses we guide students through these intertwined topics.
-
Harnessing advanced algorithms and parametric modeling to create complex, optimized structures.
-
Integrating robotics with digital workflows for precision-driven, automated production.
-
Exploring the potential of additive manufacturing with sustainable, high-performance materials.
-
Innovating in layer-based construction techniques for efficiency and design freedom.
-
Bridging tradition and technology to redefine craftsmanship in the digital age.
-
Experimenting with and applying cutting-edge materials to enhance structural performance and aesthetics.
Our take on architecture, design and materials
Our projects emerge from the dynamic intersection of teaching and research, shaped by the collaboration between a university professor Cristina Nan and architect Mattia Zucco at the Eindhoven University of Technology. Together, we explore the evolving relationship between architecture, computational design, and digital craftsmanship, pushing the boundaries of materiality and making.
Our work operates at the convergence of theory and practice, where 1:1 scale prototyping, digital fabrication, and ornamentality become tools for both investigation and expression. We believe in the power of experimentation to redefine contemporary design and fabrication processes, fostering new ways of thinking about form, structure, and detail.
We welcome collaborations with researchers, designers, and industry partners who share an interest in these themes. If you’re interested in working together, let’s start a conversation.
