3D Hubs helps you find 3D print designs—anything from jewlery to tools to housewares—then connects you with a local 3D printing service who can make it. This collection, Low Poly Pokémon, is just one of the most recent added to their website.

“The Low Poly Pokémon project started as a challenge,” says their designer Flowalistik. “I wanted to try to transform the low-quality graphics the first Pokémon video games had into a 3D model." The resulting forms can be printed in a wide range of materials—it depends on your local 3D printer—though the plastic seen here is most common.

Dwell-curated pavilions focused on design for humankind, scandinavian design, the modern family, and technology. 3-D printed designs in the Energy 360/Technology Pavilion included a glowing piece by Daksh Sahni.

Built as a prototype for the New York City Department of Transportation, the sculptural Squiggle Rack© can be made in ABS plastic, bronze, or cast iron.

Made from ABS plastic, a common 3D printing material, the Bristol Chair capitalizes on the complexity possible with additive manufacturing. "When talking to designers," says Bitonti, "I try to impress that [3D printing] has its own unique materials and process... they try to design for injection molding but they need sensibilities and knowledge appropriate to this medium. Additive processes are their own thing with their own advantages."

Onstage, Liz and Kyle von Hasseln will talk about putting their own spin on the emerging technology of 3-D printing. The two founded Sugar Lab, which designed and printed three-dimensional, edible candy and chocolate treats, and has since been acquired by industry heavyweight 3DSystems. The treats will be on view at the pavilion.

This "surfboard" is designed purely in 3-D CAD software, 3-D printed via Selective Laser Sintering by SciCon Technologies in Valencia, California, and assembled at Karten Design in Marina Del Rey, California.

The flexible nylon that makes up the Catena necklace has a distinct shimmer to it. “I ended up using SLS [selective laser sintering; a common 3-D process] polished nylon for all of the smaller jewelry pieces, like earrings and rings, and SLS flexible nylon for the necklaces,” says Wu.

The Tangens necklace, shown in white, has a smooth, bonelike quality.

Bitonti's studio frequently pushes the boundaries of additive manufacturing—the industry term for 3D printing—by collaborating with other designers and technology leaders. Bitonti designed these rainbow-hued shoes, part his "Mollecule" Shoe Collection, with the help of Adobe (for the necessary software) and Stratasys (for the necessary 3D printing technology).

The eco-friendly phone in question is the Fairphone: produced by an Amsterdam-based organization, it's made with metals sourced from small-scale miners in the Democratic Republic of Congo. That way, the phone's production avoids exploitative mining practices. The phone itself is also designed to be long-lasting, cutting back on waste, and many of its modular parts can be easily replaced by users. For the launch of the Fairphone 2, the second iteration of their eponymous product, the Dutch organization partnered with designer Alan Nguyen and 3D Hubs for a similarly eco-friendly way to produce the smart phone's accessories.

3-D Printing Demo 3-D printing technology was once only in the domain of professional designers, but thanks to Cubify's new at-home device, it's entered the home realm. Far from just another of-the-moment gizmo, this innovation opens the door for democratizing manufacturing. On Sunday, June 23, at 2:00 p.m. on the Demonstration Stage, join 3D Systems senior researcher Scott Turner as he demonstrates how the award-winning product works, creates an object from start to finish in real time, and chats about 3-D printing's potential.

London-based designer Julian Mayor used fiberglass to turn a three-dimensional sketch into three-dimensional piece with the General Dynamic chair.

Stratasys machines can be used to print everything from futuristic chair designs to parts for face shields to protect healthcare workers from exposure to the COVID-19 virus.

Nguyen produced two 3D-printed designs: a Nightstand and and Amplifier, the latter of which was inspired by the "natural acoustics of conch shells." As its name suggests, its curvature amplifies the smartphone's speaker to fill a room with sound. Both designs seen here are made with woodFill 3D printing filament, a material that has the look and texture of wood thanks to its recycled wood fibers.

To get your own Nightstand or Amplifier—or a 3D printed Fairphone case—just visit 3D Hubs to browse 3D print files and connect with a local 3D printing service. Unfortunately the Fairphone is currently only available in Europe, though it may be expanding to other countries later this year.

For a wider selection of 3D printed items, and to see what 3D printers are near you, just check out 3D Hub's main website. There you can find thousands of items to print—from toys to electronics to lighting fixtures—and select from a wide range of printing materials.

Not all 3D printing is plastic: the stainless steel Reaction Table measures 13" x 16" x 16." Using algorithms originally developed for MRI digital modelling, Bitonti was able to design this sinuous, smooth strucutre.

"We think Kammermakers can be built around the globe to print solutions that can respond to local contexts, with local materials," says Vermeulen of the room-printing machine. Fellow co-founder Martine De Wit adds, "It's really research and design by doing. We continuously improve the design, which has an effect on the printer, which has an effect on the materials, which has an effect on the structure." Photo courtesy DUS Architects.

"The rooms are first tested out on the small printers," says DUS Architects co-founder Hedwig Heinsman. "Once the file is completely finalized, we send it to the big printer. The technique in the small printer is the same as the big one so we can use the same files." Photo courtesy of DUS Architects.

The Home 3D Puzzle from Cinqpoints is an innovative puzzle with 17 finely crafted pieces. Each piece can be used to build the house structure, furniture, or other structures. Due to the intricate nature of each puzzle piece, the Home 3D Puzzle is a brainteaser, as pieces needs to be placed in an exact way to create the home. The puzzle is a construction game, and has been designed with thoughtful attention to architectural structures.

The duo recently launched the Endswell jewelry collection of rose gold rings. According to Gant, she “wanted to create pieces that aptly represent an heirloom of the modern day…each ring is made by first 3D-printing a wax, and then hand-casting those waxes in solid gold.” Gant and Deming were drawn to this process because it blends old and new manufacturing, creating one-of-a-kind pieces that are lasting. 3D-printing allows them to “push form, customization, and precision, while the hand-casting and hand-finishing ensures each piece has that human touch that machines can’t replicate.”

Bitonti collaborated with 3D printing marketplace Shapeways and Michael Schmidt Studios to produce "Dita's Gown," a unique item specifically tailored for Dita Von Teese. Unlike most 3D printed objects, the gown is dynamic: 3,000 articulating joints allow its form to move fluidly. The gown is also studded with 12,000 Swarovski crystals.

The first room of the project, currently a three meter-high, 180-kilogram sample, is on track to be completed this summer, and the entire site is open to the public to view the progress and welcome ideas. Photo courtesy of DUS Architects.

Pictured is one of Stout’s three-dimensional braided rugs and a pinched clay hanging light made with Sean Gerstley. Stout has also created a number of digitally printed curtains in collaboration with Kate Fox. “I want my work to make people happy,” she says.

The fabric took Kettal three-and-a-half years to develop.
