Symposium: Building the Future
The AMC Symposium: Building the Future explores the transition from Bauhaus’ guiding principle “Form Follows Function” to the contemporary leading theme “Form Follows Material.” This two-day event brings together leading researchers and industry experts to discuss the future of construction, digital structures, and sustainable materials.
March 31 – April 1, 2025
Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, Maurice-Halbwachs-Auditorium (Steubenstraße 6, Haus F, Weimar)
Key Topics:
- Additive Manufacturing in Construction
- Digital Structures and Computational Design
- Sustainable Building Materials
- Bauhaus Principles in the Digital Age
Lectures from Caitlin Mueller MIT, Jan Willmann Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, Bauhaus Dessau, MFPA, Brüninghoff Group, SOPHISTIK AG, and more!
March, 31: “Form Follows Material” – Insights into additive manufacturing, digital structures, and resource-efficient construction.
April, 1: “What We Can Learn from Bauhaus” – A deep dive into Bauhaus history, industrialization, and its relevance for today’s architecture.
The Symposium is open to the public and it´s possible to participate online. Registration is now open.

About TRR 277 AMC:
The Collaborative Research Center TRR 277 Additive Manufacturing in Construction (AMC) is dedicated to advancing research in the field of construction, with a focus on leveraging 3D printing technology to revolutionize sustainable and energy-efficient building practices. Through innovation and collaboration, the center aims to usher in a new era for the construction industry. In the interdisciplinary, cross-location and dfg-funded research project, the two universities TU Braunschweig and TU Munich, pursue the novel manufacturing approach for the construction industry. Additive manufacturing can develop into a key technology for the digitalization of the construction industry. Complex research questions on materials, process engineering, control, modeling, design and construction are being investigated holistically by scientists from the fields of civil and mechanical engineering.
