A 114 kg concrete canoe with a topology-optimised skeleton, cast in 3D printed plastic formwork; it won ETH the Design Innovation prize at the concrete canoe regatta in Cologne.
Digital Grotesque II – a full-scale 3D printed grotto – has premiered at Centre Pompidou’s ‘Imprimer le monde’ exhibition. This highly ornamental grotto is entirely designed by algorithm and materialized out of 7 tons of printed sandstone. It heralds a highly immersive architecture with a hitherto unseen richness of detail.
