Using CNC to chop out 2.5m x 7m "slices" (that's 8.2' x 23') that stack up and serve as the structural system.
"Roche turned to a large-scale CNC facility run by the company Ducret-Orges, near Lausanne. Here, he found a five-axis machine originally developed to create components to restore the region’s medieval buildings. With a working area measuring 40 meters long and 5 meters wide, the machine could fabricate not just a model of the building, or small parts of it, but full-scale structural slices."

pshaw, small details... something the architect can work out later, at the opening ;-)
