We are always discovering new and interesting 3D printing materials. Just recently, we told you about how researchers are using bacteria to essentially grow strong and porous 3D printed composite materials. And today we have yet another one: eggshells! This…

Art and design needs people who can push boundaries and have an eye for style and a nose for the latest up-and-coming technologies. More recently, everyone from fashion designers to artists have employed 3D printing to make unique pieces with…

Oregon State University and Sandia National Laboratory have received a three-year, $540,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to explore whether it would be possible to capture carbon dioxide from industrial emissions before trapping its mineralized form in 3D…

In honor of International Women’s Day, once again we wanted to put women in the spotlight! Today, more and more women are mastering 3D technologies, but above all they are using them in their daily activities, in all sectors. This…

In the world today, many countries have entered a sustainable phase of aging. This means that life expectancy is increasing year after year, and the elderly population continues to grow. In contrast, some regions are experiencing a population explosion. This…

For the past decades, the global population has been steadily increasing, which means that these people have to be accommodated somewhere. Consequently, with this increasing number, the amount of accommodation must also increase. Essential for its construction are cementitious products…

3D printing has a wow factor; it appeals as a unique selling point for the production of many kinds of pieces, both industrial and consumer, and for a range of applications from art and design to engineering. One example of…

3D printing is an emerging technology in the field of construction and building, offering a more efficient workflow and the ability to construct on command. We’ve seen houses, offices, resorts, but soon will see another first: the world’s only 3D…

MEXTRÓPOLI is the largest Architecture and City Festival in the Americas, based in Mexico City. More than 80,000 people gathered at the 2022 edition to generate knowledge, exchange and a new vision of the city through architecture. One of the…

When it comes to finding new applications for 3D printing, there truly seems to be no limit. Case in point, the Australian architectural firm BVN and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) have developed Systems Reef 2, an air distribution…

Nature has survived for over 4.5 billion years and has always been able to adapt to all sorts of situations, so why can’t we do the same? Well in fact we can and 3D printing could be a method to…

The West Coast of the United States, especially in the state of California, is unfortunately known to be a land plagued by flames. In the summer of 2022, the area suffered numerous fires that caused the destruction of many homes.…
