Larry Sass Lecture

Larry Sass is an assistant professor in the Department of Architecture at MIT. While conducting advanced research and teaching, through working with paperless environments (totally digital), Sass has found a way to build spaces by literally putting every 3-D puzzle-like piece together you need and have, according to what the computer says you need. By making mini models, which can take two days to build after the CAD files are done, he can do the same with a 1:1 scale house, building up a house which will take two days and using only the materials he ordered to be cut. There will be no left over’s or no excess amount of materials. This makes his projects totally economical.
