3D printing technology produces smooth, detailed architectural models in an array of materials, including rigid photopolymers and plastic. Students from University of Tokyo guided by architect Kengo Kuma have developed a 3D-printing pen that can be used to create complex architectural structures out of plastic sticks. The Construction team named their model as ""large-scale hand-drawn structures"" which manually prints out strings of thermoplastic filament, guided by a digital tracking system. The support structures are made up of acrylic bonds providing structural stability in tension and also some strength in compression.
