Formnext

A 3D printed meeting space of two benches and a table, made by Lamáquina in Polymaker polymers on a CEAD extruder, shown at the CEAD stand at Formnext. Three earlier versions were developed before the one the client selected.

At the CEAD stand for Formnext, we presented a 3D printed meeting space made of two benches and a table. Every component was manufactured in Polymaker polymers on a CEAD extruder, with different finishes possible across an easily assembled system.

Polymaker Polymers

Isometric render of a dark green horseshoe shell holding two cream benches and a table, one person seated. — First version

Top view of the same shell: two cream benches face each other across a table, one person seated.

Front elevation, a person seated on the left bench, the shell stepping outward in stacked layers at each end.

Side view: the green shell rises in a low ridged wave, hiding all but the seated figure's head.

Rear view of the closed green back, its layers fanning upward towards a seated figure at the right.

Isometric render of a near-circular green shell with two cream benches folded inward and no table. — Second version

Higher viewpoint on the same C-shaped green shell, a single cream table set against its inner wall.

Rectangular cream enclosure seen from above, textured bands across its outer wall and green seating inside. — Third version

The same rectangular booth from the other side, green bench and table set against cream walls.

Flat elevation of the back panel: two lens-shaped bands of rough texture between smooth cream surfaces.

The printed surface up close, a lens-shaped band of rippled relief crossing the fine horizontal layer lines. — As built

Looking up at the robot arm and its extruder nozzle above a printed wall, cables coiled around it.

The finished white booth on the trade fair floor, an information sign beside it and other stands behind.

Inside the stand: a white textured partition, an olive green bench and a matching table, visitors talking nearby.
