Swarm fabrication: Kokkugia / Roland Snooks
& collect
We have a fascination with the impact of new technologies on architecture and construction. We are focussed on how to develop and leverage these innovations to rethink what architecture might be and to create intricately crafted buildings.

Roland Snooks has 15 years experience in practice, having worked on architectural projects ranging from individual houses to large-scale cultural, education and commercial projects. Roland holds a bachelor of architecture from RMIT University and a masters in advanced architectural design from Columbia University.
