LAVA LAVA (Laboratory for Visionary Architecture) was founded in 2007 by directors, Chris Bosse, Tobias Wallisser and Alexander Rieck and is based in Germany and Australia. LAVA merges future technologies with the patterns of organisation found in nature to build a smarter, friendlier, more socially and environmentally responsible future. LAVA combines digital workflow, nature’s structural principles and the latest digital fabrication technologies to achieve MORE WITH LESS: more (architecture) with less (material/ energy/time/cost).
