This tour and presentation will provide a detailed look into the integration of advanced technological tools in both the design and fabrication stages, demonstrating how these innovations have enhanced the overall process. The design team will discuss the implementation of Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) in tandem with Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machinery to achieve precise, customized solutions for the project's unique requirements. these technologies enable a higher level of accuracy and efficiency, facilitating the creation of intricate designs that would otherwise be difficult to realize. Additionally, case studies will be presented, highlighting projects that successfully employed this technology-driven approach. These examples will illustrate how the seamless combination of design and fabrication technologies has delivered exceptional results across other architectural projects.

Presenters: Jennifer Bessen and the Quarra Stone production team
