The “HYBRID CHAIR – Multimode Robotic Materialization” project explores and discusses the implementation of multimode, subtractive-additive, robotic production methods. The HYBRID CHAIR by Sina Mostafavi, Benjamin N. Kemper, Daniel L. Fischer presents a customized computational design to robotic fabrication workflow of a material system composed of subtractively produced expanded polystyrene and additively manufactured silicone. The integration of these two sets of production methods allows for a symbiosis of hard and soft materials.

This project and the lecture demonstrates the design, computation, materialization, and robotic prototyping process of project with multiple materials in more detail.
