Stick. is an open-ended exploration of digital craft, arguing whether craft and aesthetic sensibilities can be translated and digitally augmented towards defining a new paradigm of construction.

The project aims to robotically fabricate a morphologically complex assembly, starting from embedding behavioural intelligence into a simple building block- a cell. The hypothesis of whether artisanal complexity can be achieved robotically is tested against the brief of fabricating a chair.

Aligned with the idea of traditional craft, the initial experiments explore the idea of configuration, module and aesthetics through sensorial and intuitive exploration, attempting to gather a rough understanding of materiality and design sensibilities.>
