About

Ina Cheibas is an emerging researcher at the intersection of additive manufacturing, sustainable architecture, and advanced materials science. Her work primarily focuses on leveraging 3D printing technologies to develop innovative building facade systems that enhance energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the construction sector. Through experimental and computational investigations, she has explored how polymer 3D printing can produce translucent, thermally performant facade components, examining how printed geometry influences light distribution and thermal behavior in built environments — work that has collectively attracted over 35 citations since 2021. Beyond building applications, Cheibas has demonstrated a remarkable breadth of inquiry, extending her additive manufacturing expertise into space architecture. Her investigations into spark plasma sintering of lunar regolith for functionally graded materials signal ambitions toward off-Earth habitat construction, a frontier increasingly relevant to space exploration agencies and researchers worldwide. Her development of PneuPrint — a technique for 3D printing directly onto inflatable membranes — further illustrates her appetite for challenging fabrication paradigms. Combining parametric design, robotic fabrication, and materials experimentation, Cheibas represents a new generation of researchers reimagining how buildings and structures are conceived, manufactured, and sustained, both on Earth and beyond.
