We’re excited to share a summer course on 3D Printing being taught by a dear collaborator of ours, architectural designer Mark Francis.
GSS 2025 summer design-build studio titled “Anarchitecture 21c” is a collective exploration of bottom-up spatial agency, and culminates with the construction of a site-specific laneway pavilion composed of 3D-printed modules. Situated within the complex social-political realities of Toronto and North America in 2025, students will explore a balanced combination of software and fabrication tutorials, collaborative design and construction activities, short readings, and theory discussions. Students will gain a tacit understanding of both the possibilities and the limitations of parametric and digital fabrication technologies, and how they can be applied towards the systemically subversive act of communal architectural practice.
