3D Printing Guru
GoodHomes|December 2018

A pathbreaker in every sense, the architect envisions a tomorrow when objects of design are downloaded, printed and used purely on merit

3D Printing Guru

The first industrial revolution used steam to power its assembly lines. The second harnessed new electricity. The third rode the electronic wave and produced automation. The fourth will change everything!

I believe the role of the architect will evolve to provide the technological tools to society. The end users should benefit from a freely available, highly subsidised marketplace that allows them to customise, create and print their own objects, homes, even architecture. Imagine a community-owned, AI driven, human-curated, concrete printer-bot. It prints out topographies of affordable housing, responding intelligently to needs of communities in developing countries.
