De Huizenprinters are proud to present the final result of years of development: a full scale pavilion that satisfies all the requirements the consortium set out to reconcile from its start in 2017:
- Architecture that is set free from the constraints imposed by conventional construction techniques.
- Material efficiency addressing what is arguably the most pressing issue of our times, the need to reduce our global footprint.
- An open source tool chain allowing for further development and open design to be contributed by third parties.
- The prospect of building at reduced cost and processing time.
In 2017 a proof of concept was
completed with a printed park bench. Since then various challenges presented themselves in robotics, mortar recipe,
extrusion technology, topological design and assembly. Progress on these topics has been shared in a number of Bouwkoppel conferences that unfortunately came to a pause in the Covid-19 pandemic. Now the end result will be presented in Eindhoven, the Netherlands on 20 May 2022.
