Automated Architecture (AUAR)

AUAR believes that to address the demands of the housing and climate crisis, construction cannot just be automated. It needs to be reinvented. We are revolutionising construction to empower people and communities to create better and more sustainable homes. We believe in healthy, inspiring and sustainable living environments that are designed by and for local communities.

Our solution is a world first. We designed a modular building system that uses robotics and automation to deliver high quality, affordable, sustainable homes. The system consists of building blocks made from timber, a renewable material, which are robotically pre-fabricated and assembled into dwelling units with minimal material waste. Our software integrates the whole delivery process: from design to robotic assembly to procurement. The units can be easily customized based on site and context. Our approach radically reduces the production chain. One industrial robot can be a factory, embedded in local communities that need housing, providing opportunities for upskilling local labour and creating new kinds of jobs.
