While digital fabrication has presented us with many new manufacturing possibilities, it has also given us the responsibility of using these new tools to reduce the impact we have on our environment. This project aims to alter conventional construction paradigms to align with consumer wants and needs of sustainable practices. How can a building catalyze the construction industry’s commitment to lower carbon emissions as well as inspire carbon transparency? We can create a harvesting, manufacturing and assembly logic that is driven by digital tools and research. Standardization through connection homogeneity paired with novel robotic fabrication creates a streamlined assembly process, eliminating excess waste as well as reducing traffic in the construction area.
