Shape To Fabrication

ABOUT SHAPE TO FABRICATION Shape to Fabrication has a focus on cutting-edge technology, innovative construction with applications in architecture, engineering and design. Our conference speakers and workshop hosts are shaping the future, working at the intersection of technology and design innovation, unafraid to push technology and engineering to new heights. We live in an unprecedented time. An age where buildings are moving, jewellery is printed, clothes are sprayed on, facades are folded by robots and cars are made of textile. We are proud to present to you the first to use such pioneering technologies to create these magical experiences. Discover the latest approaches in digital fabrication and computational design from an international panel of presenters – Architects / Engineers / Fabricators / Artists. THE CONFERENCE The Shape to Fabrication conference is biennial and takes place over 2-days. The first iteration of the conference was held in 2003 at Unto This Last and was called 'Rhino in Architecture'. In 2007 the name 'Shape to Fabrication' was born and the second iteration of the conference took place at Metropolitan Works. Since then the conference has grown alongside the Shape to Fabrication community and the most recent conference, the 8th iteration, took place in 2023 at the University of Westminster, London. THE PRESENT The 9th iteration of Shape to Fabrication will take place in April 2025. The Shape to Fabrication workshops will be delivered on Tuesday 15th April and the 2-day Shape to Fabrication Conference will follow on Wednesday the 16th and Thursday the 17th April.
