Within the current global context of rapid change, integrated with the potentials of digital technologies, IAAC’s Master in Advanced Architecture (MAA) is committed to the generation of new ideas and applications for Urban Design, Self Sufficiency, Digital Manufacturing Techniques and Advanced Interaction.
In this context IAAC works with a multidisciplinary approach, facing the challenges posed by our environment and the future development of cities, architecture and buildings, through a virtuous combination of technology, biology, computational design, digital and robotic fabrication, pushing innovation beyond the boundaries of a more traditional architectural approach.
BACK TO ZERO
NARRATIVE Back to Zero is a regenerative concept that targets oil refineries and other aging infrastructures that pollute our world. The narrative is inspired from the “skin in the game” concept, and calculates lifetime co2 emissions for high emitting “hosts”, which then becomes a target for that same “host” to sequester through the carbon sequestration … Read more

DIGITAL FABRICATION 3D Printing | CNC Milling | Laser Cutting 3D PRINTING As we embarked on this three-week journey of digital fabrication, we began with 3D printing in the first week. Our goal was to create something that could be integrated with our other techniques in the weeks to come. To maintain flexibility and openness … Read more
Tessellate – The Cabin
Design & Concept For our project titled “A Cabin for the Future”, we focused on designing an innovative roof structure utilizing laser cutting technology. We aimed to challenge ourselves by opting for a curved roof created through the technique of ‘folding’ an 8mm polypropylene sheet. This approach allowed us to explore the structural potential of … Read more
Introduction to Digital Fabrication- THE SPINE CABIN
The project developed in the Introduction to digital Fabrication seminar involved designing and fabricating three distinct elements of a cabin, each using a different digital fabrication technique. Through this process, we explored the applications of laser cutting, CNC milling, and 3D printing. “The Spine” is a cabin based on an arched type structure, inspired by … Read more
Digital Fabrication- Cabin Creation- Modufold
In this term, we had the opportunity to explore the three distinct fabrication techniques- CNC Milling, Laser Cutting and 3D printing – which resulted in the production of our cabin components CNC MILLING “Diamtic Echoes” A wall was created with layered cutouts and a grid system to add depth. In order to experiment with material … Read more
