3D Printing for Architecture

3D printing has become increasingly popular for creating custom architectural models. Through our service, you can easily bring site masterplans, building plans, and unique concepts to life. We can create interchangeable 3D models to help you visualise your ideas and make planning decisions. We can 3D print buildings to your custom specifications, including intricate details.

Architectural 3D Prints

Site Plans

We 3D print accurately scaled site masterplans. We can also manufacture interchangeable parts.

Note: If you design in SketchUp or Rhino, we can help you correct mesh defects prior to 3D printing.

Features

We can 3D print small and intricate features and details.

Futuristic Concepts

We can manufacture futuristic 3D conceptual models that are hard to create any other way. Read about our work on a mereology tower, commissioned by UCL Bartlett School of Architecture, here.

Historic Buildings & Landmarks

Create replicas of historic buildings and landmarks with 3D printing. You can choose from a selection of buildings that have already been scanned and shared online through “Scan The World”.
