Inventorics
Recombining Artifacts for Innovation
Today, with the help of digital tools for design and fabrication in architecture, complex structures can be designed and realized. With this computational power, it is also possible to build with unique parts, which allows to consider found objects and “waste products” as a resource for construction. To value and to (re)use such unconventional materials could contribute to a self-sustaining building culture with a distinctive aesthetic.
The project is located at the University of Applied Arts Vienna funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), PEEK program (AR 730-G), 2022-2026
