This paper discusses the foundations of a bio-based material paradigm for architecture. It
argues that moving from a current reliance on the non-renewable materials of the …

To decrease the impact of the construction sector on climate change, sufficiently economic
processes must urgently be developed to encourage the use of minorly transformed timber …

We present Tsugite—an interactive system for designing and fabricating wood joints for
frame structures. To design and manually craft such joints is difficult and time consuming …

We introduce a DIY method of creating inflatables and prototyping interactive materials from
wasted thermoplastic bags that easily found at home. We used a inexpensive FFF 3D …

We present RodSteward, a design‐to‐assembly system for creating furniture‐scale
structures composed of 3D‐printed joints and precision‐cut rods. The RodSteward systems …

This paper presents a digital joinery generation method for whole-timber structures using
wood-wood connections. The research is based on a collaboration with a local timber …

Workshops are frequently used in human-computer interaction research, in a diverse range
of research projects. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has made this research activity …

The current push towards integrating new digital fabrication techniques into all parts of daily
life has raised concerns about the changing role of the craftsperson in creative making. The …

Advances in digital fabrication have created new capabilities and simultaneously reinforced
outdated workflows. In my thesis work, I primarily explore alternative workflows for digital …
