A sculptural pavilion in 3D-printed concrete that pushes the boundaries of computational design and sustainable construction.

Syntax of Form reimagines the architectural folly through computational design and additive manufacturing. Made entirely with 3D-printed concrete, the installation demonstrates how code, pattern and algorithm can be translated into built form.

By minimising waste, eliminating traditional formwork and using locally mixed concrete, the pavilion proposes a more sustainable model of construction. Its design invites visitors to reflect on the hidden language, which is digital syntax, that shapes our environment and to consider how material limitations can drive architectural innovation. Advances in modelling, fabrication and chemical additives enable sweeping curves, delicate folds and complex geometries that helps shift the concrete’s identity from monolithic to expressive.
