PUBLIC LECTURE RUSSELL LOVERIDGE Russell Loveridge is Managing Director of the Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) in Digital Fabrication. He studied civil engineering and architecture, completed his professional degree in Toronto, his MAS Diploma in Architecture at the ETH Zurich, and obtained his doctorate at the EPF Lausanne. He has worked professionally in construction and architecture, but also has extensive experience academics and was previous- ly the Research Director at the Laboratory for Architectural Production (LAPA) at the EPFL. His research investigates advanced fabrication methods, intelligent use of materi- als, and novel construction techniques, all with a specific interest on how these emerging technologies affect processes of design. In his role within the NCCR Digital Fabrication, he and his team at ETH RMIT ARCHITECTURAL Zurich are responsible for one of the largest and most advanced research consortiums worldwide that focuses on changing the way we design and build.

It is a call to disrupt the status quo through innovative ideas and narratives for homes, designed through the use of new technologies, homes that are more responsive to its users and environment.

RMIT University have partnered with Porter Davis – one of the largest home builders in Australia. Porter Davis construct over 1500 homes annually, offering over a hundred designs that can be configured and customised. RMIT and Porter Davis will develop new dwelling types that encapsulates sustainability, buildability, integrates building services and structure while speculating about the future of housing.
