3D Printed Furniture Is the Next Step for Home Decor

3D printing is as popular as ever, reaching spheres beyond design and home decor. For the last decade the technology got so sophisticated, we can now print human ears and parts of a skull. Furniture would seem like nothing compared to that, if it wasn’t so intricate and imaginative. But 3D printed furniture isn’t just interesting to look at. Its practicality and decorative qualities are simply undeniable. Take a look for yourself.

3D Printed storage wall via 3D Printing Industry

For instance, this storage wall by Simplus Design proves that 3D printed furniture isn’t all chairs and tables. Colorful and geometric shapes as well as rich texture – all make this a decorative product for home or office.

Plastic SuperMod system is a great way to display and store your favorite books, wines, and plants along with some interior decorations.

Vortex bookshelf by Joris Laarman Lab

Vortex bookshelf is another example of what can you get from 3D printing. Functional and yet so decorative, the shelving system is wall decor as much as it is a storage unit.

Even the ornamental top layers of the shelf are storage-friendly, and can house small things between their folds.

Oneshot stool by Patrick Jouin

Patrick Jouin, who printed the first chair, also brings dynamic and flexibility to 3D printed furniture with his folding Oneshot stool that can easily take shape of your standard umbrella stand.

Thanks to its intricate, smart design, Oneshot also has the look of a furnishing that commands and draws attention.

3D Printed Chairs

Noize Chair by Guto Requena

Still, chairs remain the most popular 3D printed furniture items. And there are a lot of designs to choose from. They are rarely simple, though.

Taking the Giraffe chair by Lina Bo Bardi, Marcelo Ferraz and Marcelo Suzuki as a 3D protomodel, designer Guto Requena added the sounds of São Paulo streets to his design, and it turned out gorgeous, if barely practical.

Eiffel chairs by Ventury Paris

Ventury is a France-based 3D printed furniture design firm that offers the most designer 3D printed creations on the market. One such design is an Eiffel chair.

Looking like a perfect representation of the iconic landmark, thanks to a similar pattern, Eiffel makes for a personal beautiful home accent that no other 3D printed design could rival.

Peter Donders‘s Batoidea Chair

Batoidea is a creation of a designer Peter Donders, who favors cellular design and colorful furniture. His 3D printed pieces are deliciously bright and contemporary.

Batoidea is only one in a collection of cellular goods that left Donder’s 3D printing station rather than a classic furniture building workshop.

Aluminum Gradient Chair by Joris Laarman Lab

Joris Laarman Lab is full of interesting 3D print experiments that result in exhibition-worthy works. Founded in 2004, the lab managed to display their collection at the Friedman Benda Gallery in 2014.

One of their works is this Aluminum Gradient Chair that consists of microstructures that allow to create any form out of aluminum.

Lounge Chairs

Biomimicry chair by Lilian van Daal

We are not done with chairs quite yet. And we’re not sure the designers will ever stop being fascinated with seat design, 3D printed or not.

Lilian van Daal experimented with density of a single material to create a simple design that is easy to recycle. Biomimicry is a result of those experiments that turned into a chair that combines solid and soft material density for comfort and sturdiness.

 

Ventury’s ‘Gaudi’ – Lounge Chair

Another one of Ventury’s amazing designs is this luxury lounge chair from their Gaudi collection. Its metallic cellular base is proof that 3D printed furniture can, too, look resplendent.

The brown leather upholstery adds to the chair’s luxe look, and shows that combining cutting edge and traditional technologies works wonders for design.

Cellular Design

Gaudi Bar Stools by Ventury

One of the 3D printing favorite patterns is cellular form, which often gives the 3D printed furniture that alien look.

Ventury used it in their Gaudi collection to tribute the famous architect who was known for his love for organic shapes. Gaudi bar stools would certainly make an impression in a home bar.

Gaudi Side Table by Ventury

Gaudi side table is also a gorgeous cellular item that deserves its place in a contemporary living room next to one of these sophisticated sofas.

What makes this design especially luxe is the gold metallic finish, but a Lucite tabletop adds a beautiful yet casual contrast to the cellular base.

Generico Chair by Marco Hemmerling and Ulrich Nether

Marco Hemmerling and Ulrich Nether joined forces to produce Generico Chair using generative and additive manufacturing technologies.

Made entirely in this organic-like form, the seat looks unusual from the tips of its legs to the top of its back.

Cellular Coffee Table with a 3D printed base by Onur Ozkaya

Industrial designer Onur Ozkaya has taken cellular design even further with his Cellular Coffee Table, the base of which is an entire system of cell systems within cell systems.

Using three layers of cellular structure, the designer achieved a very airy, lightweight but solid and stable base that holds a thick rounded square glass top.

Intricate 3D Printing

Cohda Binary Table by Cohda

The beauty of 3D printing is that the final product can be as (if not more) intricate as the handcrafted pieces. And even though they’re usually made of unnatural materials, they look as intriguing.

Cohda’s Binary table is just one design from their 3D printed furniture collection designed with great detail and intricacy.

3D Printed Walnut Table by Aleksandrina Rizova via 3dprint

If you love warmth and beauty of natural materials, but also appreciate the design opportunities offered by 3D printing, there is a way to make them work.

Aleksandrina Rizova designed her walnut table to be different from all the rest. Instead of a wooden base, the furnishing features cellular 3D printed legs in an intricate shape, which support a matching angular tabletop. The contrast in materials is stark, but there is something alluring about it.

Vincent Coste 3D Printed Table

Vincent Coste’s 3D commode is a modern take on 18th century furnishing originally designed by André-Charles Boulle.

The original ornament interpreted by 3D software, that was used to the maximum of its ability, resulted in an eye-catchy piece that although see-through, still has immense detail to it.

Bartlett’s student chair project via MADM

A team of students from Bartlett architecture school developed a new technique that allows 3D printing complex curvy structures.

They tried to use it in chairs, and the experiments yielded amazingly gorgeous results, one of which is particularly detailed and complicated.

Organic Furniture Designs

Chairgenics 3D Printed Chair by Formnation

The problem with handcrafted and traditionally manufactured furniture is that not only does it leave a lot of waste behind, it also often limits the creators in what they can do.

Namely, it’s difficult to create complex organic-looking designs by hand. When it comes to 3D printing, though, you can really let your imagination fly. For instance, designer Jan Habraken and a team of Formnation imagined how chairs would look like in the future, if they had DNA in their peculiar design Chairgenics.

Daniel Widrig Degenerate Chair

Utilizing digital maquettes used in movies and video games, the designer Daniel Widrig created a Degenerate Chair that consists of 3 billion three-dimensional pixels stuck together with the help of a mixture of plaster and sugar with sake.

Thanks to its incredibly complex structure, the chair looks like a unique rock formation that was carved from a single block in a shape of a stool.

Printed Glacier Table by NOWlab

Researching the caves inside the “Mendenhall Glacier” in Alaska, NOWlab created a ‘Glacier’ table, which represents the ‘optimum material cycle’.

Semi-translucent, the biodegradable table has a glacier-like tabletop bottom created in a layer-by-layer process rather than with the help of molds or additional scaffolding material.

Brainwave Sofa by Lucas Maassen

Just like Guto Requena turned sounds of São Paulo streets into a chair, Lucas Maassen made a sofa out of a brain wave scan thanks to 3D printing technology.

With some help from an electro-encephalogram (EEG), Maassen got a 3D landscape image, and sent it to a CNC milling machine to create a very cat-friendly sofa in soft foam.

Colorful 3D Printed Furniture

Multithread Desk by Kram Weisshaar

Got used to seeing only black and white 3D printed furniture? The designer duo Reed Kram and Clemens Weisshaar present an entire collection of 3D printed furnishings featuring colorful bases and joints.

One such design is a contemporary sleek desk with a rack for storage. There are also a side table, a coffee table, and a console shelf in the collection.

Durotaxis Chair by Alvin Huang of Synthesis Design

Architect Alvin Huang of Synthesis Design also offers a colorful chair design, which he achieved through multi-material printing technology.

The gorgeous ombre turquoise seat fades to white around the edges. And the shape and materials make it a far cry from your grandmother’s rocking chair.

Metsidian Table by Janne Kyttanen

Designer Janne Kyttanen was among the first 3D printer users. Now he creates mind-boggling designs fusing such materials as volcanic rock and 3D printed metal parts.

Metsidian is a table that was created with additional help of explosion welding. Aside from an intriguing production process, the table also has a surprising shape with the top collapsing inside right in the middle.

Endless Pulse by Dirk Vander Kooij

Not only traditional furniture can be made of reclaimed materials. The Endless chair by Dirk Vander Kooij is made made out of old refrigerators.

Kooij is also a special case because he built his own 3D printer that makes mistakes, which he actually likes as opposed to flawless 3D printers.

Patterned 3D Printed Furniture

Joris Laarman 3D print exhibition

Joris Laarman’s 3D printed furniture at a 2014 Friedman Benda exhibition in New York demonstrated how massive 3D printing can be.

Laarman’s MX3D printer, that prints bigger objects like chairs and benches, does it mid-air also using stainless steel and other metals.

Patterned 3D printed table

3D printed furniture can also bear patterns and prints. It doesn’t have to be solid. Joris Laarman’s Maker pieces easily prove that.

Looking like something that came out of Wonderland, the Maker table would be right at home in some contemporary interior.

3D Printed Furniture With a Metal Finish

Sofa So Good by Janne Kyttanen

Even metal is subservient to 3D printing. But it’s still easier to use more pliable materials like resin, and then get a finishing touch you like.

Janne Kyttanen’s Sofa So Good couch may look like a metal dish scrubber, but it’s in fact a soft resin seater coated with copper and chrome.

3D printed table by Janne Kyttanen

Another one of Kyttanen’s works is this glamorous bronze Sedona table that represents the sandstone formations of Arizona.

We can totally see it in a contemporary dining room. Although what chairs would go well with it?

Big Growth Table by Mathias Bengtsson

Mathias Bengtsson made his traditional approach work for the modern 3D printing design. He took his carved wooden walnut Growth table and grown it digitally to create Big Growth, a solid bronze table with a similar shape.

3D printed furniture is great for quite a few more reasons. It’s environmentally-friendly, as it promotes waste-free production. It’s cheaper and faster as well as less demanding than traditional furniture. And it may even get a digital distribution without the need for shipping.

Furniture on a 3D printer: 3D printing

In this article we talk about making furniture using additive technologies - 3D printing - about the advantages and examples of using this approach in practice and what technique is best to use.

This article was prepared using a publication from the site 3dsourced.com, which was translated and supplemented for you by the Top 3D Group.

You may have once had the idea to use 3D printing in the manufacture of furniture for your home, but you dismissed it, considering this idea too laborious, time consuming or expensive. After all, large industrial 3D printers with a huge print area, like the Farsoon SS403P 3D printer, are usually needed to create large pieces of cabinet furniture, right?

That used to be true, but now there are ways to use 3D printing in the interior without the need for large-format industrial machines.

Read on - we'll take a look at some of these applications with real examples.

Option 1: Build furniture with the Hangprinter

Designed by Torbjørn Ludwigsen, the Hangprinter is a cable-suspended and movable print unit designed to print large objects as cheaply as possible. The Hangprinter doesn't fit in a case, its print chamber is the entire room.

Hoping to inspire others to try frameless 3D printing, Thorbjörn has made the software files for this printer open and free for everyone to copy, use and further refine. Most parts of the Hangprinter can be 3D printed, and the cost of building one yourself is estimated to be as low as $250.

Chris Riley Stool

Introduced in mid-2017, Hangprinter printing immediately began to be tested in the creation of large objects. In the video below - one of the very first examples - Chris Riley's bar stool.

Such videos showed the strengths and weaknesses of Hangprinter, for example, the ability to create really large objects for relatively very little money and the possible delamination due to the lack of a closed camera.

Chris Riley's Stool printed with offset layers and delamination, and it also took two weeks to print because the Hangprinter was so loud it couldn't be used at night and had to be printed only during the day.

Hangprinter assembly and operation requires familiarity with 3D printers, an understanding of the mechanics of how they work, skills in working with electronics and device debugging, but there are also detailed instructions for beginners, as well as a small but growing community of other Hangprinter users who can be contacted for help.

For those who are willing to put up with the shortcomings described above, or are confident that they can avoid them, Hangprinter remains the most affordable and affordable way to create fully 3D printed furniture.

Option 2: 3D printed furniture on a large 3D printer

3D printed furniture from the Print Your City project. This model may not fit in your desktop printer.

The second method is to use a stationary 3D printer with a really large print chamber

Print Your City

The “Print Your City” project, for example, uses a 3D printer to print street furniture and other small architectural forms, consisting of a robot and a fenced indoor area equipped with a special printing platform.

Last but not least, plastic for printing is made from recycled waste.

Despite the simplicity of the idea itself, this method of manufacture is beyond the reach of most people. Large 3D printers not only take up a lot of space, sometimes entire rooms, but are also incredibly expensive. Large industrial 3D printers like the Farsoon HT1001P can still cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Because of this, very few furniture projects are carried out by individuals, usually by businesses or very passionate enthusiasts, and the Wilkhahn Printstool stool shown below is an example of both.

Wilkhahn Printstool One

Designed by Thorsten Frank and manufactured by Wilkhahn, this 3D stool was produced on an industrial 3D printer and is available as part of Wilkhahn's premium office furniture range.

Wilkhahn is a German furniture manufacturer that strives to differentiate itself from its competitors.

“Unlike almost any other office furniture manufacturer, Wilkhahn stands for designs made in Germany all over the world. It offers high-quality office and dynamic conference furniture that sets the benchmark for the entire industry,” the company says.

Printstool One is one of the few 3D printed pieces of furniture available commercially. It takes several hours to create and assemble, including 3D printing the base and attaching the seat. The base is printed with lignin, an organic biopolymer that decomposes in nature.

Although the Printstool One is a commercial product, it is not easy to obtain. It is not part of the main Wilkhahn catalog and was released in a limited edition of 500 pieces.

The price for this stool has not been disclosed and probably depends on options, seat material, for example. But given that regular stock stools in this manufacturer's catalog range from $266 to $660, it's safe to assume that the Printstool One costs at least $500, making it quite an expensive plastic stool. However, overpayment for exclusive furniture is a quite common phenomenon.

In recent years, 3D printing has become more and more accessible. Most likely, this will also affect its large-format sector.

RH Engineering & ManoFigura - home furniture


"Magna Patero Ortus" - 3D printed sink RH Engineering & Manofigura .

In mid-2020, this pair of German designers broke into the luxury furniture and interiors segment with their signature Manoveneer finishing technology and large-scale 3D printing.

Their favorite printer is the BigRep One, large enough to print furniture, with a 1005 mm³ displacement, and costs around $39,000, depending on specifications.

The production process begins with 3D printing of craft furniture based on the client's design, then the ManoVeneer branded coating is applied to the product. What Manoveneer is made of is a company secret, it is only known that the coating is waterproof, can imitate the texture of natural stone and weighs very little.

Option 3: modular printing on a small 3D printer

Large 3D printers will always be a barrier to 3D printing furniture due to their size and cost, prompting designers to look for ways to stop using them - they are turning to small 3D printers and print smaller parts for later assembly.

Supermod 3D printed wall


3D printed Supermod wall.

Designed by the founders of Simplus Designs, the Supermod shelving wall consists of individually printed modules that fit together.

Supermod was created for decoration, visual division of the room into zones and storage of small things in cells. As a modular system, Supermod bypasses the need for large scale 3D printers. While the assembled wall may be taller than most people, each module can be printed on an affordable desktop 3D printer.

The next method involves using 3D printed parts in combination with conventional ones, such as a table top shield or wooden legs, giving the 3D printed components the role of fasteners and framing elements. This is the most accessible way for a wide range of makers to use 3D printing in the creation or repair of furniture.

Option 4: 3D printed parts as accessories

John Christie “Saul” dining table and chairs

John Christie, who has been creating custom furniture for over 20 years, returned to university at 40.

“During my studies, I became interested in 3D printing and how I could integrate it into the traditional furniture making process. In my projects, I studied how 3D printed parts can be used in the production of furniture.”

John is best known for his Saul Dining Table and Chairs. The table is a handcrafted piece of wood with 3D printed connections.

The author suggested that his connection system would provide "greater customization, reduced production time and waste" when applied to existing pieces of furniture.

This furniture set was exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts in Edinburgh in 2016.

This is a craft project to sell products, but similar technology has been used by amateur authors as well.

Alexandre Chappelle Furniture

Designer and YouTuber Alexandre Chappelle has documented the process of making his own wooden table with 3D printed connections. As with John Christie's project, the only 3D printed parts on this table were the articulations, while the rest of the table's parts were made from wood using conventional hand tools.


The chair is another creation of Alexandre Chappelle.

The author has posted the STL files and instructions on his personal website, where they are available for as little as $5.

This is perhaps the most affordable way to 3D print your own furniture, although the fact that John and Alexander's designs are mostly made of wood begs the question: is using 3D printed fittings 3D printed furniture?

What technique should be used to 3D print furniture?

So which of these methods can you use for your own furniture project?

If you are a professional studio or independent designer with the necessary funds, and you have a project that needs to be printed reliably and with high quality, then a large 3D printer will be the best option. 3D printing on a large printer can be ordered from a 3D studio if this is a one-time project and you are not going to purchase a printer. If you need printing all the time, contact Top 3D Shop, and our specialists will help you choose the machine that is most suitable for solving your problems.

If an industrial 3D printer is not available, then high-quality products can be created using 3D printing on a personal or professional desktop machine, using modular designs or printing connections for parts made using other technologies.

Regardless of the way you choose to use 3D printing in furniture creation, you already know that it can and should be used in this area. And this is what you can do for your own home, workshop or production today.

And 3D printers that can be purchased at the Top 3D Shop will help you with this - contact us for advice and, with the help of our employees, select the exact 3D printer that you need.

Top 11 3D printed furniture designs

Top 11 3D printed furniture projects in parks and on the streets. For example, we are seeing more and more 3D printed furniture. From chairs, tables to sofas, there is no shortage of initiatives! Designers and manufacturers use 9 technologies0194 3D print to increase complexity and offer customizable furniture. Some can even be printed right at home. Discover some projects of furniture 3D printing and leave with great home decor ideas!

TOP 1: Furniture

Drawn is a French company that developed their XXL 3D printer called Galatéa to create bespoke furniture and decor. After a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2015, she began manufacturing plastic stools, tables and chairs, and small decorative items such as vases. Users can choose the color and shape of their furniture and see 3D print of your chair.

TOP 2: Print Your City Project

If you walk around the streets of Amsterdam or along the coast in Thessaloniki, Greece, you can see outdoor furniture produced with 3D printed including benches. They were made from the plastic waste of the city's inhabitants. This waste was recycled and turned into 3D printing filament . This initiative clearly shows that 3D technologies play a key role in preserving our environment and can create value in all areas of activity.

TOP 3: Nagami chairs

Last year, Spanish design studio Nagami presented its collection of avant-garde chairs at the Milan Furniture Fair. Four rather futuristic chairs, 3D printed in different materials; for example, two of them were made from biodegradable plastic pellets. They remind us of a floral structure and are very colorful: we go far beyond a simple kitchen chair! This project is likely to demonstrate the possibilities offered by 3D technologies in the field of architecture and furniture, and we are not sure if they will appear in Ikea anytime soon.

TOP 4: RIO Collection

Integrate and Morgan worked together to create RIO, a collection of chairs and tables that incorporated elements of from 3D prints. For example, this is the back of a chair that was 3D printed in 24 hours from liquid resin or polyamide powder and a mathematical algorithm. The result is a piece of furniture that combines craftsmanship and new technology that cannot be done otherwise. The same principle applies to tables where part of the base has been 3D printed.

TOP 5: 3D printed benches by XtreeE

French startup XtreeE develops cutting-edge technology for large-scale 3D printing of for architectural design, engineering and construction. The startup is also a specific specialist for 3D printing . Among many projects, this was the concrete bench production project in 2017-2018. As a result, they created a series of three booths in collaboration with Berlin-based design studio Studio 7.5. The benches used the wicker pattern both for aesthetic value and for their structural characteristics. This is a very difficult motif to get a classic shape. However, 's 3D design is geometrically complex and uses minimal concrete.

TOP 6: Simplus Modular Wall System

Simplus is an engineering company founded in New York in 2014. She works in different areas of architecture and industrial design with an approach based on digital methodologies and rapid prototyping. One of their projects, SuperMod is a modular wall system produced using 3D printed . It combines functionality and beauty. The wall oscillates between modules of different sizes to suit different types of storage needs. 3D printed materials made of opaque white and translucent red plastic let light pass through certain modules and produce a glowing effect.

TOP 7: BigRep's Ocke Series

BigRep's BigRep ONE v3 was created to make industrial 3D printing of large objects as easy as possible. The printer offers a print volume of 1 m3. This time it was 3D designer Beatrice Müller who put the technology to good use. In fact, she designed furniture that would be machine-printed in almost one piece. In the BigRep Ocke series, a furniture set with 3D printed consisted of an armchair and a sofa. As Mueller explains, 3D printing gives designers more freedom to create new and interesting concept ideas.

TOP 8: KARO coffee table by Zortrax

3D printer manufacturer Zortrax created the KARO coffee table with the M200 3D printer to showcase the potential of their technology. The coffee table legs were 3D printed on using Z-ULTRAT filament in black, gray and ivory. Up to 3 kg of plastic was spent on the table legs. It took almost 263 hours to print several diamond and triangular modules needed to assemble the table. After everything was printed, the round glass was placed over the base to form a classy table top. KARO is weatherproof furniture suitable for both home and home use.

TOP 9: BITS & PARTS puzzle chair

This is a BITS & PARTS puzzle chair that you can download for free online and print at home, or you can order a print of this chair from 3DHub. You can choose between "Kids Maker Chair 19", "Maker Puzzle Chair" and "Kids Maker Chair 39". The latter, for example, has 39 puzzle pieces, each weighing approximately 170 grams. According to BITS & PARTS you only need 3.5kg of filament per color and it must be printed with 2.85mm ABS. With different colors, you can design your custom print chair at home!

TOP 10: Ikea Gamer Chair

Together with 3D printing startup UNIQ, furniture store giant IKEA wants to produce personalized, ergonomic and interactive video game equipment. Since a comfortable chair is so important for gamers, but no one has dealt with personalized gaming chairs before, IKEA decided to take on the challenge. The goal is for the client to simply have their body scanned and receive a stool within two weeks. The first personalized gaming chair should be available starting in 2020. In fact, this is not the first IKEA model to be produced through additive manufacturing. Already in 2017, the furniture store presented a collection of furniture from 3D printed , e.g. hand shaped coat hook .

TOP 11: 3D printed lamps

Pierre-Yves Jacques, creator of the French design studio LPJacques. The design studio specializes in using additive manufacturing technologies for their projects. A few months ago he presented his Di-Lamp project. These lamps can be fully customized by users thanks to additive manufacturing technologies. You can choose the type of design and color of the perfect lamp for your living room.
