A network of organic 3D-printed concrete columns makes up Tor Alva, a 30-metre-high tower modelled on a cake, unveiled in a small mountain village in Switzerland.
Created by cultural foundation Nova Fundaziun Origen in collaboration with professors from the university ETH Zurich, the tower was intended to revive Mulegns – a village currently home to 11 people. According to the team, it is the tallest 3D-printed tower in the world.
This week’s newsletter also featured Kéré Architecture’s brick museum for Burkina Faso’s former president, Arthur Mamou-Mani’s 3D-printed installation at Clerkenwell Design Week and an “infinitely expandable” modular 3D-printed light system unveiled at NYCxDesign.
