ABOUT US
We explore.
We create.
We share.
AUTOM8 is a research and practice group developing 3D-printing technologies for architecture. We work at the intersection of materials, machines, software and real-world applications.
We connect scientific experimentation with engineering experience and seek partnerships that turn ideas into working solutions.
