#SosOpen – Digital and Robotic fabrication in the building industry
Alexandre Dubor on how new advances in material, digital fabrication and computational design could lead to a better construction ecosystem
On Feb 20, H 18.15, the School of Sustainability host a new #SosOpen, a conference open to the community and professionals. The guest speaker will be Alexandre Dubor, leader programs at IAAC Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia.
Alexandre Dubor is an architect and researcher combining new technologies in an attempt to improve how we build and live in our cities. He holds a Masters degree in Architecture & Engineering from EAVT and ENPC in France, and a Masters Degree in Advanced Architecture from the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC), with a specialization in robotic fabrication and large-scale additive manufacturing. Since 2012, he has been working at IAAC as an expert in digital and robotic fabrication. He is now leading the Open Thesis Fabrication programme as well as the Master in Robotic and Advanced Construction. Together with IAAC staff, students and industrial partners, he is investigating how new advances in material, digital fabrication and computational design could lead to a better construction ecosystem, towards a more efficient, affordable, sustainable and personalised built environment.
2 CFP (Continuous Professional Development credits) will be awarded by the Ordine degli Architetti of Bologna to the event participants.
