Design and fabrication of spatial structures with beam shaped wooden elements. We analyzed traditional and contemporary timber systems and reinterpreted them using digital tools. Constraints - such as length and angle of the components - posed by the digital fabrication technology created opportunities for design innovation with wood construction. The designs were built on a model scale with small UR robots using specially developed programming tools. The design solution was defined by the integration of the robot-building process constraints and the assembly sequence of the structures.
