Case Study: Tapperworks creates a complex 3D printed architectural model with Shapeways

Tapperworks 3D prints The Village with Shapeways, its most challenging architectural model to date

Tapperworks, a Dutch architectural visualization firm founded by Jeroen Tapper, faced the significant challenge of designing and 3D printing one of its most complex projects to date: an architectural model called The Village. The intricacy of the design made it extremely difficult to produce, requiring expert guidance on material selection and the 3D printing process itself.

Shapeways provided the solution by collaborating with Tapperworks to choose the most suitable 3D printing materials for the architectural model. This partnership successfully overcame the project's complexities, demonstrating the significant benefits of 3D printing for architectural visualizers, from prototyping to creating finalized models. The vendor, Shapeways, enabled the successful completion of this highly challenging project.
