ARCHITECTURAL ROBOTICS LAB | DESIGN RESEARCH

The ARCHITECTURAL ROBOTICS LAB conducts design research into how intelligent environments act, think, and grow with their inhabitants. Through careful making and testing, we develop new understandings of care, maintenance, agency, and cohabitation in domestic and institutional spaces.

Our research produces both physical artifacts—robot-rooms, interactive furnishings, responsive environments—and conceptual frameworks for understanding how space participates in human life.

Students wanting to intern in the ARL typically have taken one course listed above and earned an "A"; if invited to join, ARL interns may earn credit (1cr = 3 hrs/wk) in Green's section of DEA 4010 / 6020 form, MAE 4900 / 6900 form, or IS 4900 / 7900 link. All interns are required to sign this agreement with the lab on or before the start date.
