Fabricate 2017
Tags: Achim Menges

Welcome to FABRICATE 2017: ‘Rethinking Design and Construction’. This is the third volume in a triennial series of conference publications that began with ‘Making Digital Architecture’ in 2011 at The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London. From these origins in one of the world’s leading cities for design excellence, in 2014 FABRICATE moved to ETH in Zurich, a pioneering science and technology university, where its theme was ‘Negotiating Design and Making’. In 2017, we are at the Institute for Computational Design and Construction, University of Stuttgart, a worldrenowned research lab in design for construction, located in Europe’s innovative and forward-thinking industrial heartland.
