(TU Delft Architecture and the Built Environment; TU Delft History, Form & Aesthetics) Contributor Sennema, Hilde (mentor) Degree granting institution Delft University of Technology Programme Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences Project AR2A011 Date 2024-04-18 Abstract This research paper delves into the convergence of 3D printing technology within architecture and fashion, examining significant collaborations and innovative advancements in these fields. Commencing with a historical overview of notable architectural and fashion designs, the timeline serves to contextualize the subsequent case studies. These case studies exemplify the fusion of technology, nature, and architecture, featuring collaborations such as Iris van Herpen and Daniel Widrig's 3D-printed Fossil Top, Francis Bitonti and Michael Schmidt's dress for Dita von Teese, and Zaha Hadid's collaboration with United Nude to create the Flames Shoe. Through meticulous analysis, these case studies illustrate how interdisciplinary collaborations transcend traditional design processes, highlighting the transformative potential of such endeavours. Furthermore, the paper explores the redesign of the Naturalis Biodiversity Centre in Leiden, where architect Michiel Riedijk and fashion designer Iris van Herpen seamlessly integrated biomorphic panels into the atrium design, symbolizing the interconnectedness of art, science, and creativity. By examining these collaborations and innovations, this research paper aims to deepen our understanding of the role of 3D printing in shaping the future of architecture and fashion. It also acknowledges the contributions of notable pioneers such as Dr. Hideo Kodama, Chuck Hull, and Carl Deckard, who have played crucial roles in advancing essential 3D printing technologies.
