On Friday, 26 September 2025, the Architecture Study Program at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) successfully held an event entitled “MateREALity: AutoConz 3D Construction Printing” as part of the MateREALity 2025/2026 series. The activity was shared via Instagram and featured on the official @architecture.ugm account.
The session focused on the introduction and exploration of 3D construction printing technology as an innovation in the construction industry. The event was organized in collaboration with DEKKSON, which introduced AutoConz technology as one of the breakthroughs in future construction methods.
Through this session, students were introduced to how 3D printing technology can be applied in construction processes to enhance precision, time efficiency, and material optimization. The discussions and demonstrations helped bridge the understanding between digital fabrication technology and architectural design practice.
Participants were also encouraged to explore the potential of this technology in addressing future architectural challenges, such as sustainability, cost efficiency, and design flexibility. The emergence of 3D construction printing technology is seen as opening new opportunities for developing more innovative and adaptive construction methods.
This activity reflects the commitment of the Architecture Study Program at UGM to equipping students with hands-on experience in cutting-edge construction technologies, while preparing them to meet the evolving dynamics and demands of the architectural profession in the future.
