扎哈事务所推出3D打印实验雕塑
Zaha Hadid Architects Unveils New Experimental Structure Using 3D-Printing Technology

扎哈•哈迪德建筑事务所近期公布了一项新的实验雕塑，在米兰设计周作为白色米兰城市会展的展出作品，该会展在米兰国立美术学院举办，主要探讨白色在当代城市的设计产品和建筑作品之中的使用。该雕塑名叫“Thallus”，这个名称来源于它看上去像一株不分茎叶的植物，雕塑通过3D打印技术而产生。该作品延续了扎哈事务所的计算设计手段，并通过计算机辅助设计而成。

Zaha Hadid Architects unveiled a new experimental structure as part of Milan’s White In The City Exhibition during the city’s annual Salone del Mobile. Held at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in the heart of Milan’s design district, the exhibition explored the contemporary use of white color in design and architecture across various locations in the city. Named the Thallus – after the Greek word for flora that is not differentiated into stem and leaves, the sculpture is the latest in ZHA’s investigations using 3D printing technology. Thallus continues Zaha Hadid Architects’ Computational Design (ZHA CoDe) group’s research into generating geometries through robotic-assisted design.

Thallus的材料运用的是优质聚乳酸塑料，由热丝切割技术和自动添加剂制造。它的基本几何形状是一个经过剪裁的圆柱体，再通过热切割形成直纹面，模具从而成为了该雕塑连续打印的起点不分。六轴机器3D打印技术创造了7公里长的挤压结构带，与本身的直纹面相互环绕，继而创建出这样如马蹄莲般连续的几何形体。

Thallus is made from a premium polylactide plastic used in 3D printing. The structure is created by hot wire cutting technology and automated additive manufacturing. Its shape is generated from a ruled surface tailored to a trimmed cylinder, that allows the hot-wire cutting process to create the mold of the sculpture’s base. The mold then becomes the starting point where the structural strip continuously prints. Six-axis robotic 3D-printing technology created the 7km long extruded structural strip that loops around to connect with itself on a single ruled surface. The result is the continuous, calla lily-like geometry that is created through one single stroke.

该设计产品运用了不同的生成方式，其中一个是用一条曲线沿着参考表面环绕，通过参数设定改变其密度和生长路径。雕塑表面上的图案差异，从紧密到稀疏，这些都在打印过程中经过严格的角度设置要求。Thallus的产生说明了在当今社会，无论是建筑设计，还是机械行业，几乎任何东西都可以通过机械化定制过程而产生。

The design explores the different ways in which a curve is guided along a reference surface, changing its density and growth through parametric boundaries. The differences in pattern on the structure’s surface, from closely-knit to large curves are defined by parameters ranging from proximity to its edges, structural requirements and the angled directions it took during printing. The creation of Thallus’ structure from ZHA CoDe demonstrates what can now be achieved in terms of mechanization and customization in the architecture, construction and engineering industries.
