From organizing center to threshold configuration: a morphogenetic reading of Aleppo’s long-term urban transformation

Purpose This article examines Aleppo as a long-term urban transformation process and asks how organizing centers, mobility/access structures and socio-spatial differentiation shaped its urban form across successive historical phases. Here, morphogenesis is understood as the histo...

Assessing Plastic Material Options for Large-Scale Robotic 3D-Printed Facades

Large-scale robotic 3D printing (LSR3DP) has emerged as a promising technology for the production of customized architectural façade components, enabling geometric freedom without the need for dedicated molds or tooling. To date, most experimental façade applications have relied...
