This project parallells the development of architectural typology with the learning processes of robots. The building takes into account certain campus grammars for modulating large avenues and reinterprets them very literally, as a robot might. The center has a special emphasis on warfare robotics; breakdowns in systems of spatial differentiation help to camouflage the highly protected spaces.
