How often have we sat at a desk, looking for a material that looks good, performs the way we need, and has a track record, plus has the certification for that performance?
In this section I will take a look at how we might add a further ability, that is to design the specific material and print the product to the specifics we require and be able to embed sensors to show its performance.
This opens up huge implications from a reproduction of heritage products with modern performance to designing new shapes and interacting with the building as a whole.
