3D Printing Design - Additive Manufacturing and the Materials Revolution

Zusatztext Fills a void in terms of educational texts: there is no direct competitor that I know of on this admittedly focused topic. This is one of the first texts to address emerging design and fabrication techniques in the fashion industry. By coupling both topics, the book merges these formerly discrete activities into a cohesive single process. *proposal review Informationen zum Autor Francis Bitonti is currently a researcher at the Digital Arts and Humanities Research Center at Pratt Institute and professor at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute School of Architecture, USA. Vorwort This is the guide for anyone eager to get to grips with the new manufacturing technologies shaping the future of creative design industries. Zusammenfassung To work with the materials of tomorrow, design students across visual arts disciplines need to understand the cutting edge of today. Whether you’re modelling in interiors, designing in fashion or constructing for interiors, in your work or as part of a final project, 3D Printing design is an encouraging guide to additive manufacturing within design disciplines. Francis Bitonti gives an insider’s view from his design studio on how 3D printing is already shaking up the industry, and where it’s likely to go next. Complete with interviews from designers, business owners and 3D-print experts throughout, Bitonti considers whether 3D body scans mean couture for all, how rapid prototyping can change your design method and if 3D printing materials can enhance medical design, amongst other areas of this emerging method of manufacture. This is inspirational reading for the designers of tomorrow. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction1. The materials revolution of 3D printing2. The future of materials3. Disruptive distribution 4.
