Before, you could only print letters and photos, but now, you can also print tools, furniture, and almost anything imaginable. In this Domestika course, discover the basics for getting started in the world of 3D printing alongside expert Agustín "Flowalistik" Arroyo, designer, educator, and 3D printing specialist.

Designer and Maker

Agustín Arroyo, better known in the maker world as Flowalistik, is a product designer and educator who currently lives in Madrid, Spain. He's been passionate about creating new products since he was young; what he used to do with Legos, he now does with a computer and a 3D printer.

He's been working in digital manufacturing since 2013 and his creations are characterized by minimalist shapes, attention to detail, and, above all, functionality. He's collaborated with companies like Ultimaker, BCN3D, and Prusa Printers, creating end products, promo collections, and new designs. Most of his designs are free for download, meaning anyone with access to a 3D printer can make them.
