Learn how to transform your designs into physical objects with 3D printing

3D printing has become the most practical and realistic way of bringing product design and architecture projects to life when seeking high accuracy and quality standards. For a digital architecture plan, it allows for more control and precision, increasing the overall quality of your architectural work.

In this course, learn how to build models and recreate tridimensional spaces using 3D printing with Agustín Arroyo. Go through each step of the process, from the idea to the final product. Learn how to design for 3D printing and see different ways to post-process the designs you create.

This is Agustín Arroyo’s second course on Domestika. In his first course, Introduction to 3D Design and Printing, he shows how to get started with 3D printing, its benefits, and how to get the most out of it.

Who is this online course for?

This course is for interior designers, 3D designers, model-makers, or anyone interested in the world of 3D printing who would like to turn their models into objects using the latest technology.

Requirements and materials

To take this course, you need basic knowledge of 3D modeling using software like AutoCAD, 3ds Max, Maya, SketchUp, Fusion 360, Zbrush, Rhino, or Tinkercad. It is also recommended, but not essential, to have some basic notions of 3D printing.

As for materials, you need a computer (PC or Mac) and the modeling software that you are most familiar with. You’ll also need to install the free software Prusa Slicer.

For your project, you need access to a 3D printer (either your own or through a 3D printing service). If you post-process the 3D printed model, you’ll need a craft knife, glue for plastic surfaces, fine-grit sandpaper, and acrylic or spray paint.

Teacher Plus
Designer and Maker

Agustín Arroyo, better known as Flowalistik in the maker space, is a product designer and teacher currently living in Madrid (Spain). His passion for creating objects started at a young age while building with LEGO. Today, he uses a computer and a 3D printer.

He's been devoted to digital manufacturing since 2013 and his work is marked by minimalist shapes, attention to detail, and above all, functionality. Agustín has collaborated with companies such as Ultimaker, BCN3D, and Prusa Printers, creating products, promotional collections, and new designs. Most of his designs can be downloaded for free, so anyone with access to a 3D printer can make them.
