Softkill Design工作室通过大型的3D打印研究最新的激光烧结技术，突破了微型计算机设计算法和打印材料本身的局限。由

Materialise

公司赞助，Softkill Design制作了1：33的原型3D房屋模型。这个模型由30个不需要任何粘结材料的精细纤维片组成一个整体的悬臂结构。其中纤维的半径为0.7mm，能够实际的形成建筑元素如结构，家具，楼梯，外墙等，同时展现出及相应的灵活变化纹理。这样的打印房屋重量轻，强度高，结构优。实际生产时将组成单元打印好，再运输到现场进行安装。

Softkill Design工作室以伦敦为据点，由Nicholette Chan, Gilles Retsin, Aaron Silver, Sophia Tang创办，他们研究可以直接利用在智能3D打印技术中的材料和制造方法。工作室隶属于AA建筑联盟学校的Robert Stuart-Smith工作室。Prototype项目受到Materialise的慷慨赞助以及 VoxelJet, Sirris的支持。

Softkill Design investigated the architectural potential of the latest Selective Laser Sintering technologies, testing the boundaries of large scale 3D printing by designing with computer algorithms that micro-organize the printed material itself. With the support of

Materialise

, Softkill Design produced a high-resolution prototype of a 3D Printed house at 1:33 scale. The model consists of 30 detailed fibrous pieces which can be assembled into one continuous cantilevering structure, without need for any adhesive material. The arrangement of 0.7mm radius fibres displays a range of flexible textures and the ability to produce in-built architectural elements, such as structure, furniture, stairs, and façade, all in one instance. The Softkill house moves away from heavy, compression based 3d printing of on-site buildings, instead proposing lightweight, high-resolution, optimised structures which, at life scale, are manageable truck-sized pieces that can be printed off site and later assembled on site.

Here’s some more information from the Softkill Design:

Softkill Design is a London based team of architects (Nicholette Chan, Gilles Retsin,

Aaron Silver, Sophia Tang) researching new methods of generative design for additive

manufacturing. The unique workflow aims to produce intelligent designs which intuitively

utilize 3D-print technology. Research was founded at the Architectural Association

School of Architecture’s Design Research Lab in the studio of Robert Stuart-Smith.

Research prototypes were generously supported by Materialise, with additional support

from VoxelJet, and Sirris.
