This documentary follows design studio Rael San Fratello’s experimentation with 3D-printing technology and traditional adobe architecture.
Set in the remote San Luis Valley of Colorado, this documentary follows design studio Rael San Fratello’s experimentation with 3D-printing technology and traditional adobe architecture. Motivated by the neglect of traditional adobe houses that once covered the region and the rise of concrete buildings, Studio Rael San Fratello connects contemporary technology with the legacy of pottery making and adobe architecture in the Southwest. It is an analytical exercise that strives to hold on to cultural traditions while pushing the limits of a humble, naturally occurring material with the help of 21st-century technology.
