Die Auseinandersetzung mit alten Konstruktionsprinzipien führt in Kombination mit der Entwicklung neuer digitaler grafischer Konstruktionsmethoden zu ungewöhnlichen Wegen in der Gestaltung selbsttragender Strukturen. Die Block Research Group der ETH Zürich beschreibt anhand ihres auf der Biennale 2016 in Venedig ausgezeichneten Armadillo Vault Entwicklungsprozesse und Visionen von ressourcenschonenden raffinierten Tragstrukturen ohne Stahl.Grundlegend ist die intensive Auseinandersetzung mit Prinzipien Die Block Research Group ist DETAIL Leserpreisträger 2016. Setting new developments in digital graphic construction methods against the backdrop of time-tested design principles results in extraordinary approaches to the design of self-supporting structures. Using their Armadillo Vault, which was recognised at the Biennale 2016 in Venice, the Block Research Group at ETH Zürich describes their research, development processes and visions of resource-saving, refined and steel-free support structures. Fundamental to their work is an intensive exploration of principles. The Block Research Group is the DETAIL Reader Prize Winner for 2016.
