Inspired by traditional earth architecture, this project explores the possibility of using low-tech methods to construct buildings in remote areas with the aid of Mixed Reality (MR) devices. In the process of formwork and construction, MR technology is deployed as a tool for guided construction. Traditional formwork typically requires skilled workers for precise assembly and construction, which limits architectural expression, prolongs construction time, and increases construction costs. Therefore, this project adopts a ground-based inverted mould and develops an MR application to manage the construction process, including positioning the formwork, controlling the depth, managing material proportions, and organizing the module fabrication and assembly sequence.
