Jacob Lehrer

Jacob Lehrer is exploring the future of sustainable architecture, utilizing emerging computational techniques and advanced manufacturing technologies. He began his academic career at Wentworth Institute of Technology, earning a Bachelor of Science in Architecture with a concentration in Emerging Technologies.

Using Rhino and Grasshopper, he developed systems to create facades, pavilions, and sculptures utilizing Kuka Robotics systems and Wasp robotic clay printing. With a commitment to sustainable design, Lehrer holds three LEED AP accreditations (BD+C, O+M, ND) and believes computation is key to tailoring projects to their specific locations, facilitating a more sustainable development process. His work blends aesthetics and environmental responsibility with a core focus on the natural world.  Building on this unique experience, Jacob will attend SCI_Arc starting in August 2025.
