The National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) Digital Fabrication is an ambitious research initiative founded by the Swiss National Science Foundation, based at ETH Zurich. By fostering interdisciplinary research in the fields of architecture, engineering, robotics, materials and computer science, the seamless combination of digital planning with the physical fabrication process shall be achieved, opening up entirely new perspectives for the future culture of building and architecture.
