Radu Gidei of KOPE joins the podcast to talk about their vision to provide a software platform for designers, builders, and manufacturers to transition from design to construction using prefabricated products for the offsite construction market.Radu also talks about the challenges that contractors and architects face when trying to adopt offsite construction—including the lack of visibility into available construction systems and the risks associated with using new systems on a project—without the need to completely revolutionize their workflows. Overall, this episode provides insight into the world of offsite construction and how KOPE is working to make it easier for designers and builders to adopt it.To learn more about Radu Gidei, see the full show notes with links, find more episodes, and find the past guests on the TRXL podcast please visit https://trxl.coMentioned in this episode:Sponsor: TRXL+TRXL is now offering memberships.

Ryan Cohen and Matt Clarey of Neoscape join the podcast to talk about to talk about Project Hillside. You may not know this project from its “Hillside” name, but you probably have seen and heard of it before (perhaps more-so if you’re coming from an architectural background) as architect Moshe Safdie’s Habitat, an architectural landmark which was built in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in 1967 for the World’s Fair… although what was built, it turns out, was only an amended version of the overall vision from Safdie’s master’s thesis project at the School of Architecture at McGill University.Today Project Hillside brings the entire vision to life through an incredibly detailed and fully immersive digital architectural experience, which was a collaboration between the teams of people at Neoscape, Moshe Safdie Architects, and Epic Games’ Unreal Engine.In this episode Matt, Ryan, and Evan talk about the thousands of hours, dozens of people, and the tools and tech it took to create the experience, as well as the new potentials for user experience and storytelling within immersive digital environments.

Stefana Parascho of the Lab for Creative Computation (CRCL) joins the podcast to talk about the increasing accessibility of robotics in architecture education and industry, as well as the need to consider the long-term impact and trajectory of the field. In her role as professor, she highlights the excitement and formative experience for students to participate in the ideation and fabrication of precise and complex structures. We also talk about her background in architecture and her experience with computational design, robotics, and her current work with multi-robotic assemblies. Ultimately, Stefana envisions a future where robots can work alongside us as co-workers, with the ability to execute smaller tasks and communicate with humans in a more intuitive way.To learn more about Stefana Parascho, see the full show notes with links, find more episodes, and find the past guests on the TRXL podcast please visit https://trxl.coMentioned in this episode:Sponsor: ConfluenceConfluence is an intimate, invite-only conference event for AEC professionals and technology providers to discuss industry trends and ideas, together.
