Exploring Informed Architectures
The setup of the first robotic manufacturing laboratory in 2005 at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETHZ), marked a new course for digital manufacturing in architecture by introducing innovative design paradigms that soon became the cornerstone of major researches on the topics. A generic industrial machine is a tool used to transform virtual models into material systems with direct and bidirectional connections between the digital model and the production process. The potentialities of this methodology are investigated over several analyzes aimed at designing and fabricating performative and informed architectures through a digital protocol that includes computational design and morphogenetic, material computation, and innovative manufacturing methods. In that respect, the purpose of the chapter is to identify the main study lines, showing the results obtained and extracting the theoretical concepts resulting from investigations carried out by universities and research centers invested in the cases of informed architectures.
