The 3 - 3D - 3 Plan at the F for Faculty Exhibition at VCUQ, Qatar...



A few images from my contribution to the F for Faculty exhibition at VCUQ... 

The exhibit presents a set of three projects, realized using of FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) - a 3D printing technology, in three different scales... All designs take advantage and explore the technology's inherent, both conceptual (CAD based) and physical (material/ fabrication based) attributes and peculiarities... 

All displayed designs were fabricated at the VCUQ FabLab...

The F for Faculty exhibition concludes on January 21...
