About
Ena Lloret Fritschi is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of digital fabrication, architecture, and computational design, with her most recognized work centered on **Smart Dynamic Casting (SDC)** — an innovative construction technique that merges traditional slipforming methods with robotic fabrication to unlock unprecedented geometrical freedom in architectural concrete production. Her 2018 paper on the adaptive control system developed for SDC demonstrates her commitment to bridging fabrication-informed design tools with real-time process parameters, reflecting a sophisticated understanding of how computational thinking can transform physical making. Lloret Fritschi's contributions are particularly significant for the construction and architectural robotics communities, where the challenge of producing complex, non-standard concrete elements efficiently and sustainably remains a pressing concern. By embedding intelligence directly into the fabrication process, her research enables structures that would be prohibitively complex or costly using conventional methods. Though still an emerging body of work in terms of citation volume, her research addresses questions of genuine long-term consequence for digital construction workflows. She represents a growing generation of scholar-practitioners reshaping how buildings are conceived, designed, and ultimately built through the seamless integration of robotic systems and architectural ambition.
