Studio Florian Schätz is a design and research studio at the Department of Architecture at the National University of Singapore that emphasizes on the design of architectural projects using additive manufacturing as a construction method.
In collaboration with JTC Corporation, the objective of the studio is to design a tropical campus in Singapore's One North Mediapolis with worklofts, start-up spaces, industrial workspaces mixed use offices, residences and open collaboration spaces. The design method is based on profound site investigation, integration of its context and articulation of space through construction. The projects respond to the demands of tropical climate, such as the need to deal with heavy rainfall, cross-ventilation, light permeation, thermal radiation, sun shading and vertical greening.
Structure-tonics documents a design strategy through model making, prototyping, 3d printing and visual communication, where new architecture begins through merging engineering, rea
