3D-printing Parametric Concrete Unit Construction

This set of architectural forms demonstrates the design potential of the PCU system beyond a single predefined geometry. By controlling unit segmentation, aggregation logic, and local geometric adaptation, the system enables the generation of multiple building typologies with varying spatial openness, structural articulation, and façade porosity. These examples highlight the capacity of the PCU framework to support flexible architectural expression while remaining compatible with modular fabrication and construction constraints.
