Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC)

The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (Catalan: Institut d’Arquitectura Avançada de Catalunya) also known as IAAC, is an educational and research centre dedicated to the development of an architecture capable of meeting the worldwide challenges in the construction of habitability in the early 21st century.

This Band Of Small Robots Could Build Entire Skyscrapers Without Human Help

The Minibuilders could take on tall tasks, including automating another frontier of human labor: the construction industry. Even though most buildings are designed using the latest digital tools, actual construction is stuck in the past; building is messy, slow, and inefficient. 3-D printing might change that, but recent projects like these printed houses in China demonstrate one

This Anti-Gravity 3-D Printer Can Make Objects Anywhere—Even Space

The Mataerial printer squirts quick-drying polymers from a nozzle, like it was frosting a cake, creating a new model for 3-D printing that doesn’t require layers and supports to make a new object. While many creators look at 3-D printing as a technology full of endless potential, designers Petr Novikov and Saša Joki? saw something

Stone Spray builds architecture from the ground up … literally

The machine already requires very little energy to operate and could be run with solar power As useful as 3D printers are becoming in industrial design, they still aren’t exactly eco-friendly and are still mostly limited to small scale objects. You couldn’t really use one to print a building just yet, but a group of
