معرفی
Axel Körner is a Senior Researcher at the Institute of Building Structures and Structural Design (ITKE) within the University of Stuttgart. He is associated with the Cluster of Excellence IntCDC and leads the research group 'Bioinspired Compliant Systems.'
- Research focus on computational design, bio-inspired structural systems, and adaptive façades
- Key projects include lightweight densification, reconfigurable tensegrity systems, and resource-aware architectural solutions
His work bridges computational methods with biomimetic principles to develop deployable and responsive architectural systems. Projects like Flectofold and collaborations in the TRR 141 research unit emphasize plant-inspired kinematic solutions for architectural shading and structural adaptability.
Axel contributes to teaching through the ITECH Master’s program, guiding design projects on self-formation, self-supporting assemblies, and environmental adaptive architecture. He is involved in developing demonstrators such as the Self-Choreographing Network (2018) and Bending-Active Segmented Shells (2016).
