- Case Study -
PRINTABLE DWELLING
Buildings can be 3D printed. Designers and architects get inspired by unusual construction methods and materials. A professor's large cement vessels in the College of Visual Arts gave me an idea. I imagine this concept dwelling printed with geopolymer cement, then coated with smooth or sculpted stucco.
Exploring the building with virtual reality reveals a world of possibilities. Flying above it, I see the central cylinder as super conduit for water, air, and electric handling. Printed first, it supports a robotic arm for printing the dome sections. Inside the cylinder, there's a spiral staircase to the observation platform.
Archways between sections are windows. This model omits doors and other common building components. Details get added incrementally to digital prototypes. Concept visualizations with sufficient detail demonstrate reduction to practice in successful design patent applications.
