about this project:
3Droplets is a site-specific installation of three faceted “droplet” volumes that we realized in 3D-printed standard concrete—marking the first outdoor use of our tectonitX process. starting from the digital model, we segmented the geometry for transport and positioning, calibrated wall thickness and internal cavities for stiffness and weight, integrated concealed anchoring, and finished the surfaces for heavy public use. installed as a field of elements across roughly 24 meters, the set varies in scale (largest height about 0.84 m) and reads as a sequence along the promenade, aligning precisely with the landscape layout.
additive tectonics develops the future of construction: architectural 3D printing. From vision to realisation, across art, architecture and design, our strength is to introduce creatives, architects and other builders to the vast technological and ecological possibilities of today.
Let’s create the built environment of tomorrow together.
