In a 2011 article for the MIT magazine Spectrum, Sass recalled being introduced to architecture through reading books while visiting his uncle in Harlem, NYC.

"[6][7] The project proposed a world in which digital fabrication would allow people to order house parts online that would be delivered and assembled on site.

This project consisted of a 1/16th scale model made of laser cut 3D printed interlocking components and was conceived as a prototype for computer aided affordable construction.

[10] In Larry Sass's vision of the future, new buildings will rise faster, use fewer resources, cost less, and be more delightful to the eye than ever before.

This transformation will be made possible through digital fabrication, a new delivery system for buildings that will enable architects to send computer-designed plans directly to manufacturing--perhaps soon to be 3-D printed.
