Study Architecture 
ProPEL 
Author(s): Leslie Lok & Sasa Zivkovic
The 3D printer, a machine which has long been characterized as characterless due to having little to no constraints, is in fact highly distinctive. The Additive Architectural Elements project aims to reveal the 3D printer’s own and highly idiosyncratic architectural tectonics and narratives. Choosing commonplace prototypical architectural motifs such as floors, columns, doors, windows, walls, and ceilings we developed strategies as to how the layering of concrete, the relentless three-dimensional drawing of extruded lines of material, and the act of corbelling can suggest new strategies for building. Our question is:what is the architecture of 3D printed concrete?
