On October 30, 2024, we held the kick-off meeting for the EIC Pathfinder funded project – FlexiForm. The gathering was highly productive, bringing together all team members from Tailored Materiality Research at TU Delft | Civil Engineering and Geosciences, Professorship of Structural Design at Technical University of Munich and CONSTRUCTIM S.A. Timisoara for a comprehensive overview of our ambitious goals.

We are happy to announce that the FlexiForm project is welcoming two PhD students to the team this week. Their work will contribute to developing more efficient, sustainable, and innovative construction methods for flexible formworks using 3D knitted textiles. Alongside material characterization, the research aims to develop generative algorithms for creating knitting patterns as well as a form-finding method for knitted textile formwork.
