Robotic Clay: New Methods in Architectural Ceramics

Robotic Clay: New Methods in Architectural Ceramics

June 2 to September 10, 2023

The exhibition will bring together academic institutions from across North America to showcase 3D-printed architectural ceramics. Combining traditional ceramic craft and robotic fabrication, the exhibition will explore how attuning emergent technologies to the unique properties of clay can create new form and spatial languages.

DIALOG’s design residency in honor of Tom Sutherland invited 9 students from 6 Universities across North America to take part in a 4 day design challenge set in the heart of Calgary, along the Bow River. I applied to represent the University of Waterloo with an interest in contributing to the dialogue through my research interest in how the built environment can foster socio-cultural experiences and relationships with Water.

Congratulations to Ellie Kingsley, Nisha Bhathella, Daisy Zhang, Tuan Pham and Patricia Poiana on their second prize win in the CCA's More than transit competitionView their winning project on the CCA website.

The Longevity of Masonry

This year’s masonry design competition challenges students to develop an innovative conceptual masonry design which highlights the sustainable nature of masonry wall systems. Successful applicants will present visualizations of masonry systems and their architectural potential.

Eligibility

*This competition is open to any student(s) currently enrolled in their undergraduate B.A.S. or graduate M.Arch at the School of Architecture, University of Waterloo.
