Post-Industrial Robotics: Exploring Informed Architecture (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789811552779)

Angelo Figliola completed his PhD at the Department of Planning, Design and Technology, PDTA, of the University "La Sapienza", Rome; during the PhD he was a visiting researcher at IAAC, University for Advanced Architecture of Catalunya, working on Robotic fabrication applied to wood structures. In 2013, he was awarded a post-graduate II level Masters in Housing from the University of Roma. His research interests lie in the field of architectural technology in the post-digital age: the relationship between computational design, materials and innovative fabrication techniques as a new design paradigm for the investigation of performative architecture.
