3D concrete printing × living architecture



The making of …
The project demonstrates how 3D printing can enable a high degree of customisation and design adaptation to terrain and performance requirements.
The design was developed through parametric modelling, enabling each component to take on a unique form while remaining part of a coherent structural system.
3D printed via gantry and an ABB robot arm system, 50 pieces took 4 days to print and started their journey towards Twente, the Netherlands.
Party of 2 people
The pieces were optimized for fabrication, transport, and assembly: each element fits on a standard pallet and weighs under 50 kg. This modular approach allows the larger structure to be assembled by two people, simply by stacking and interlocking the individual components.
