3D Printed Building Envelopes

Researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed multifunctional and translucent facade elements that can be produced with a 3D printer. The technology permits complete freedom in architectural design and the easy realization of innovative design concepts. The new facade also integrates functions such as ventilation, insulation and shading. -- Read more at 3DPrint.com: https://3dprint.com/187220/3d-printed-building-facades/ -- Website of the Associate Professorship for Architectural Design and Building Envelope at the TUM Department of Architecture: https://www.hk.ar.tum.de [Video: TUM]
