This workshop explored the synergy between human intuition and digital precision, combining bamboo and timber through AR and robot-assisted fabrication. Through an educational and experimental workflow where craft, algorithm, and making coexisted, the pavilion was completed. Instead of treating bamboo merely as a decorative element, the focus was on understanding traditional craftsmanship and enhancing its efficiency through AR-based construction.
