Recreation cottages for city forests based on urban democratic planning and 3D printing using recycled materials

“The starting point and inspiration of my thesis is based on the Urban Infra Revolution (UIR) project. UIR’s goal is to develop a new production method that can make efficient and profitable use of recycled materials in urban construction and replace traditional polluting concrete construction with a more environmentally friendly alternative. UIR also seeks to identify and promote the business opportunities offered by the circular economy in different ways.

The thesis discusses the potential of urban construction using 3D printing and recycled materials, and examines the application of this technology in urban construction. Ways and means about involving civil society in urban planning taking advantage of digitalisation are also argued and presented.”
