Abstract

Over the last ten years a lot of research has been put into bridging the digital and the physical. It has been a time of rapid rise of robotics in architecture and fabrication. Based on our research with Estonian wooden house manufacturers, the academic research and the industrial reality still remain worlds apart. Even though computer numerically controlled (CNC) technology is gaining more and more hold in the timber industry, the vision how to use it is driven by economy and efficiency rather than by design. Our research is looking at how architects can start to wield a greater influence on the direction where the automation of construction industry is heading and how to make bespoke design and craftsmanship affordable for the wider public.

President Toomas Hendrik Ilves claims to have in the mid-90 s “reverse-engineered” Jeremy Rifkin’s The End of Work, the 1995 bestseller arguing that information technology would undermine large-scale industrial production. What he calls his “backward reading” of Rifkin led him to recognise the importance of Estonia’s miniature physical size in creating a substantial post-industrial economy, where a small, tightly knit hi-tech workforce of perpetually pivoting entrepreneurs could reinvent Estonia as the original startup nation.
