On April 4 – 6 the international conference FABRICATE 2024 will be held at the Royal Danish Academy, Copenhagen. Co-Chaired by Head of Centre for Information Technology and Architecture Professor Mette Ramsgaard Thomsen and Chair for Biohybrid Architecture Professor Phil Ayres, this fifth edition of FABRICATE will build upon and extend its legacy as a prime place of exchange on the cutting-edge of new forms of design and construction and material thinking in architecture, engineering and building.

FABRICATE 2024 asks how rethinking architectural methods, technology and construction can create a new societal position for the built environment, appointing a particular focus on questions of resource consciousness and bio-based design and fabrication strategies.

departures in the design and making of architecture and to reflect upon how, and for whom, we design.’
