The ICD/ITKE Research Pavilion 2011 was robotically fabricated from extremely thin sheets of plywood (6.5 mm). The temporary structure represented the architectural transfer of biological principles of the sea urchin’s plate skeleton morphology by means of novel computer-based design and simulation methods, along with computer-controlled manufacturing methods for its building implementation.
