Stereotomic Stone Architecture — International Workshop

An intensive workshop exploring the design and construction of stereotomic stone structures, combining geometric reasoning, digital modelling and hands-on fabrication. 
The digital component of the workshop will be developed in Rhino/Grasshopper, with a particular focus on the use of Voussoir, a plugin recently developed at FAUP for the parametric modelling of stereotomic vaults. The programme includes a visit to a marble quarry in Alentejo and the construction of a stereotomic stone arch. The workshop opens with a symposium featuring Giuseppe Fallacara, Christophe Aubertin, and Clemente Pinto.

Participation is limited to 25 participants, selected on the basis of their portfolio. 

Date: 4–8 May 2026
Price: There is no participation fee.
