Office of the future
3D printed office spaces.
Dubai has turned to 3D printing to construct a futuristic office. Using a special mixture of cement, the unique TV-shaped space took just 17 days to print and two days to install with a giant industrial 3D printer, which is significantly faster and lower cost than traditional construction methods. The full strategy focuses on construction, medical products and consumer products as Dubai plan to print super-cheap artificial limbs, teeth and even fast food in minutes.
