Architecture of Continuity :

From materiality to environment

This research is an endeavor to revolutionize the way architecture is perceived today by using advanced technologies and a conscious choice of materials with a low environmental impact and to take this research from labs and institutes out into the mainstream construction sector.

The project dives into the question : Can our cities be 3d printed using sustainable and local materials? We developed a design that shows how we can print the basic staircase and openings challenging the support structure required for this proposal. We successfully printed the design in various scales to understand the details in a magnified manner.
