EPFL Architecture is pleased to invite you to visit the exhibition of the Master students' work until July 31 at the Rolex Learning Center.
\r\nThe exhibition is divided into three distinct areas: the first brings together projects focused on resources and craftsmanship, such as wood, earth, and self-construction; the second features projects exploring urban and territorial scales; and the third presents work on social or individual housing, as well as interventions in existing buildings, including transformation, rehabilitation, and renovation.
\r\n
\r\nThe final reviews for the 2026 master's projects will take place from July 8 to 15 at the Rolex Learning Center and are open to the public.
\r\n

During a one-week Summer Workshop in Central London, students will explore drawing as a fundamental tool in architecture and engineering, engaging with the site as both a built environment and a historically transformed place. Developed in collaboration with Drawing Matter, London, the workshop integrates hands-on drawing with research into the Drawing Matter Collection, a unique archive of architectural drawings.

The project aims to further investigate the structural, architectural, environmental, and social dimensions of TRC and its applications, particularly in the context of a new Multi-Purpose Space for the Department of Architecture & Interior Design Kenyatta University Campus, Nairobi, Kenya in collaboration with Urko Sanchez Architects. The space is intended to support academic, social, and experimental activities while serving as a living laboratory for sustainable and alternative construction methods. The pavilion should function not only as a usable academic space but also as a pedagogical tool, demonstrating climate-responsive design, material innovation, and adaptability over time. \r\n

\r\n
\r\nThe program combines lectures in architecture, robotics, and work psychology with the full-scale construction of a timber structure from irregular timber stock, using an ABB industrial robot in a human-robot fabrication workflow.
\r\n
\r\nNo previous experience in construction robotics is required, only curiosity.
