about this project:
tiny penthouses is an installation at the 19th international architecture exhibition in venice that proposes adaptive rooftop living as a circular, city-friendly alternative to demolition. the presentation combines luminous maquettes that project floorplans with a full-scale 3d-printed wall of rounded, tactile forms—quickly nicknamed the “tette wall.” our scope focused on realizing the wall as a robust, exhibition-grade prototype and on translating the circular design brief into printable geometry and joints, demonstrating how recycled, reprintable materials and additive manufacturing can move from concept to buildable elements.
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.
