The STACK Consortium is pleased to have supported the PhD Summer School on Geometry for Digital Fabrication and Architecture, organized at the Technical University of Denmark from 17 to 21 August 2026. The week brought together Master’s and PhD students from mathematics, computer science, architecture and engineering to explore how geometric and computational methods can address challenges in architecture and digital fabrication.
The programme focused on simulation, optimization, geometric rationalization, elastic curves and fabrication-driven design problems. Lectures were combined with hands-on exercises, workshops and discussions, giving participants from different backgrounds a shared foundation and a common language for working across disciplines. The week concluded with a half-day minisymposium.

The school featured presentations by Andreas Bærentzen and Rasmus E. Christiansen (DTU), Amir Vaxman (The University of Edinburgh), Oliver Gross (UC San Diego), Quentin Becker (The University of Tokyo), Christian Müller (TU Wien), Camille Schreck (Inria), Klara Mundilova (EPFL) and Henry David Louth (ZHA). Their contributions covered the geometric and computational foundations behind the design and fabrication of complex architectural forms.
The summer school contributes to STACK’s aim of connecting frontier research in geometry with practical applications in architecture, engineering and construction. By training students across disciplines, it helps build the community needed to bring these methods into real-world design workflows. The STACK Consortium thanks all presenters and participants for their engagement and curiosity throughout the week.
