日本建筑启动Serendix合作伙伴has managed to 3D print a futuristic spherical house from scratch in less than 24 hours, according to a日本今日报告。
Measuring just 107.6 square feet across, the tiny home is by no means roomy, but thanks to its 20,000-kilo frame, it’s sufficiently robust to serve as a permanent living space. In fact, the firm says its uniquely-styled abode is so tough and quick to build, that it meets Japanese earthquake and European insulation standards, thus it can safely be used for everything from vacationing to emergency housing.
“The sphere has a strong physical structure,” explain the Serendix Partners team on their website. “It can be used in various environments, [including as] a house that protects families from natural disasters. Using a 3D printer and advanced robotics, we are working on a design that only works with robots, and uses as little human hand [input] as possible.”
Serendix’s spherical living plans
Serendix Partners与建筑师Masayuki Sono紧密合作，专门使用3D打印和高级机器人技术的组合来构建独特的低成本建筑。该公司可能是在2019年成立的，但Sono在该领域的工作长期以来已经存在，他的早期住房设计甚至赢得了2015年的奖金美国宇航局的尊敬的栖息地挑战。
然而，从那时起，Sono试图通过设计可购买的微型住所，可以将他的未来派住房远离航空航天部门，进入主流，并以26,090美元的价格购买。这些房屋仅被称为“球体”，才能具有最低的合理外表面积，因此它们需要最小的材料，将其成本和交货时间保持在最低限度。
虽然Serendix伙伴提到工作的智慧h others in the development of its living pods before, it hasn’t revealed their identity. That being said, the firm has disclosed that as part of its R&D, it is “developing new functional materials,” with an emphasis on strength, durability, insulation, heat-resistance and aesthetics, and this now appears to have culminated in Sono’s design being put into practice.
在不到一天的时间内建造房屋
Serendix Partners的快速建造是在日本城市Komaki的住宅建筑公司Hyakunen Jutaku工厂之一。Working with (again) unspecified ‘overseas partners,’ the firm was reportedly able to 3D print a 20-metric ton reinforced concrete frame for the house in pieces, before assembling them into the finished article on the clock, taking just three hours to do so.
Overall, the full build took 23 hours and 12 minutes to complete, and while it’s not immediately clear whether the company was able to finish the Sphere’s interiors in that time, or if it just created an outer shell, this is still an impressive feat in itself.
在自动化方面，Serendix Partners过去曾对其住房建设过程中对“人手”的需求最小的需求提出了一些大胆的主张。Given the rapid pace at which the firm was able to wrap-up its build though, it appears this was vital to the project’s success, even if it did have to apply paint to the Sphere’s exterior manually, a step it intends to mechanize in future.
展望未来，据说该公司预计能够通过微调，技术进步和进一步的自动化，从而能够更多地减少房屋的交货时间。就其最初的构建而言，Serendix Partners现在有望通过其合作者联盟出售它们，此后预测它们将用于露营，在灾难区度假或作为庇护所。
将3D印刷建筑变成艺术
While 3D printing hasn’t quite managed to crack the mainstream construction sector just yet, it has already been deployed to realize some pretty innovative design ideas. During September 2021,面具建筑师公开计划建立一个社区钢3D印刷模块化房屋in the city of Orani, featuring heart-shaped designs set to be made possible by its ‘EXOSTEEL’ construction system.
Earlier last year, in January,黄蜂also finished building its3D打印的“ tecla”生态狂人，一种使用本地可回收材料创建的碳中性结构。为了应对日益增长的气候紧急情况而开发的房屋是在大约18个月的时间内建立的，目的是建立新的可持续建筑模式。
别处，Simulaahas even experimented with 3D printing structures from organic matter, by building a基于真菌的“ burlasite”展示that’s deliberately designed to decompose. The slow disintegration of the artistic piece, which won top prize at last year’s塔林建筑双年展，本来应该是发人深省的，并表示时间缓慢的流逝。
