A group of students from the Bartlett School of Architecture at the University College London called CurVoxels have developed a new 3D printing technique that allows them to 3D print complex curved, three-dimensional structures. The process starts when the 3D model is voxelized, which is a process of breaking down an object into small “volumetric pixels”. The individual voxels are converted into a basic spatial curve, which is capable of adopting different orientations as well as generating various patterns throughout the chair. For their project the team recreated the iconic Panton chair in a detailed filigree pattern.
