What I'm seeing is the organic design that 3d printing offers and the scaling strength of whatever material they have to use makes one ugly structure. If they could have made it finely detailed and "lacey" like small 3d models can achieve it would have looked really cool.

Printed in smaller pieces then assembled. Still cool, but not what the headline implies. Ikon has printed structures taller than the pieces of this building.

The dust and dirt that will collect in all those aesthetic grooves that look like layer lines will be epic.

Inside this building is a portal to other important areas. I’m sure of it.

Would be really interested to know what the building is actually for. just a tech demo? or does it have a real use?
