This thesis research deals with the architectural project from an interdisciplinarypoint of view, integrating biomimetics, additive fabrication, computer vision, androbotics. The work focuses on the feedback interaction loop among roboticadditive fabrication, a stigmergic agent-based system and the self-organizingproperties of the material. The aim is to explore the morphological, constructiveand expressive potentials generated by the mutual influence of computationaldesign, construction behavioral rules, and physical material behavior (whosecomplexity exceeds current simulation capacity).The proposed approach leads tothe creation of surface-based tectonics, enhanced with a fiberglass-coateddendritic ridge formation that integrates functional, ornamental and structuralperformances. The process can be extended to larger architectural scales with thecreation of bespoke EPS molds via robotic hot wire cutting; the presented casestudy leverages the aforementioned process on ruled surfaces for the generationof translucent delimiters, used to create heterogeneous spatial organization.
