Arctic Recalibration is an investigation of resource-driven settlement strategies in Arctic environments. A material system, fabrication system and building type was developed to address locally sourced materials.  To begin to address certain issues, the proposed fabrication system is an automated construction system capable of customized on-site fabrication of architectural-scale structures using real-time environmental data for process control. The aim of this multi-scale investigation of a local [low technology] material strategy in conjunction with robotic fabrication [high technology] is to investigate the possibility of pioneering the New North in a way that is economically efficient and environmentally meaningful in the near future [< 2050].
