The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) presents the first building in Spain made from clay and a 3D printer. The project is the result of IAAC's ongoing research into new ways of addressing the social and environmental challenges of the future through its various education and research programmes. The prototype, built at the Valldaura Labs facility, represents a bridge between the past - vernacular earthen architecture - and the future - large-scale 3D printing technology - that will not only serve to transform the architecture of the future, but will also be of great use in addressing the current climate and housing crises around the world.
