Arthur Mamou-Mani AA dipl, ARB/RIBA FRSA –Wikipedia– is a Franco-British architect, and director of the award-winning architecture practice Mamou-Mani, specialising in a new kind of digitally designed and fabricated architecture.Arthur is a lecturer at the University of Westminster, and has given numerous talks around the world on “Eco-Parametric” architectural practice, including three TedX conferences in the U.S ,France and UK.A fellow of the Royal Society for Encouragement of the Arts Manufacture and Commerce, he has won the American Architecture prize, the RIBAj Rising Star Award and has recently been awarded the prestigious Pierre Cardin Prize for Architecture from the Academie des Beaux-Arts in France.In 2020, the Architects Journal named Mamou-Mani one of its 100 ‘Disruptor’ practices that are challenging the norms of traditional architecture practice in their drive to bring about sustainable alternatives. Most recently, he was named one of the ’20 for 2025 World Design Congress Trailblazers’, recognising individuals making pioneering contributions to the future of design.Alongside his architectural practice, Arthur founded Fab.Pub, a pioneering digital fabrication lab in London that empowers people to co-create using large-scale 3D printing. At the forefront of circular design, the lab uses bio-based materials and open-source principles to make sustainable products and construction both accessible and participatory.
In this talk, Arthur Mamou-Mani explores how architecture can move beyond image-making and into a truly circular relationship with materials, fabrication, and construction. Drawing from the work of Mamou-Mani Architects and its parallel fabrication practice, he argues that the act of building, testing, and making remains essential in an age increasingly dominated by digital tools and AI. Through a series of projects, from reclaimed timber towers and modular timber structures to large-scale installations and 3D printed biopolymer facades, Arthur shows how design can begin not with a finished image, but with waste streams, site realities, local culture, and the physical behaviour of materials themselves. Central to the talk is a vision of architecture as an ecosystem, where design, making, reuse, and disassembly are connected from the outset. By experimenting with biomaterials, robotic fabrication, flat-pack systems, and mobile production tools, he presents a future in which buildings and components can be made more locally, with less waste, and with circularity embedded into the entire process. Ultimately, the talk is a call to rethink architecture not as a static object, but as a living cycle of materials, craft, technology, and community.
