Fologram Talks: Holographic Brickwork from Fologram on Vimeo.

Laying a brick wall–a normal, straight one–is fairly easy and inexpensive. But building complex shapes using bricks is extremely difficult, since it requires an extraordinarily minute level of control and consistency. Only very experienced construction crews can realize them, at a prohibitively expensive and time-intensive price. That’s one reason most architects resist the temptation of going all Antoni Gaudí in their work.

This AR software is changing that. As ArchDaily reports, software developer Fologram has created a way for builders to quickly replicate complex, organic designs in brick–with the help of an augmented reality headset.
