3D PRINTED MODULAR PANELS
The joint project with 3D printing lab Voxell brings large scale additive manufacturing in the field of interior design. Our goal is to combine aesthetics and functionality with advanced 3D printing technology to offer architects and designers a new platform for creative work. The result of this fusion are modular panels, which enrich interiors with unique design elements.

"As a product designer, I have always strived to combine aesthetics and functionality with innovative technology. I wanted to create a product that was not only an aesthetic element of the interior, but also a reflection of the possibilities that 3D printing offers us today. I have been involved in additive technologies for over a decade, and I am still fascinated by the vast possibilities in pushing the boundaries of manufacturing and design. I see 3d printing as a highly effective technology for creating both final products and solitary objects for the interior. The advantage of 3d printing is the flexibility and reduction of waste in the production itself."
Modular panels are a flexible and innovative solution for interior partitioning or wall panels. Using large-format 3D printing, they enable the creation of repeating patterns and complex, bespoke shape solutions with minimal waste. Panels can serve as dividers or design elements that add a unique look, mood and aesthetic to an interior.
The panels are designed to take maximum advantage of the benefits of large-scale 3D printing - from design efficiency, to printing from recyclable composites, to minimising waste through bespoke production.
Production efficiency is key for me as a designer. Thanks to 3D printing, we can speed up the production process to a minimum and print only what is really needed - the final product. This approach not only minimizes costs but also waste, which is crucial for me as a designer who focuses on sustainability and closed product lifecycles. Repetitive patterns allow architects or other designers to experiment. Using algorithms, patterns can be pushed further to test the boundaries of 3D printing and shape design together. Modularity then creates a more affordable solution for any interior design project. Printing with granules allows the use of recycled and recyclable materials. In this way, I believe we will move 3D printing from prototyping more into printing final products and reduce unnecessary waste.
