Hi everyone,

I am a grad student at the School of Architecture. I am interested in generating historic urban form models (fairly dense land parcels), roughly 5 inches by 7inches by .5inches (height). I am not sure about the material for now but I am looking at basic clay toned - light grey type models. Can you give me some suggestions?

Cheers,

Hugo

Hi Hugo,

I believe that the most appropriate material for your case is multicolor powder!! You will be able to print in any color you wish or with multiple colors on the same model!! Check out the photos we have in our Hub, we have a collaboration with the local School of Architecture.

I might suggest the sintered gypsum printing 3D System, I can make myself. If you send me the o.STL DWG files I can also make you a cost estimate.
Hello

Hugo,

If you have some photos or sketches that would be nice. I am also a fellow architect, so I can correlate.

Then, maybe, we can come up with a proposal.

Regards

Hi!

There are some specific materials for architecture modelling imitating clay, concrete, sand, black stone, marble. I have used them a lot and their surface finishing is quite astonishing :slight_smile:

Hello
I have a printer gypsum powder, its printing format is 203x254x203h mm. however, it is endless arrangements. The chalk is white, but it can be painted with water colors, acrylic etc. Has good aesthetic performance, look at my site and see the architectural achievements.

I will gladly make you a quote if you send me a file or in.DWG .STL or simply in Jpeg.
goodbye
