Curvecrete has set out to create negative waste architecture with a zero-waste low-carbon robotic forming process. As part of that journey, Curvecrete is helping to build a movement towards using more resourceful practices of building and construction. With Curvecrete’s building and construction collaborators in academia and industry, it presents a series of concrete prototypes demonstrating how robotic technology might shape our cities and enable designers and builders to use low-carbon concrete alternatives.

Please join us on Saturday 21st for two exciting workshops (booking required):

WORKSHOP 1: Together in Electric Dreams… The Future of Collaborative Design
This workshop is aimed at a general audience. Looking at future technology like augmented reality and how it will impact design related fields such as engineering and architecture.

WORKSHOP 2: Curvecrete | Solving the Concrete Waste Challenge in Australia
Second only to water, concrete is the most used substance on the planet – how will robotics and low-carbon technology shape our cities?
