OK, I said Blender is the application I would choose, but why specifically?

Yes, with the advent of 3d printers we can also build 3d models with Blender and print them! And architectural 3d print can be made with Blender really easily.ĭo you want to check out an example? Here is an experiment of 3d printing with Blender for architecture recorded by Matthieu Dupont.

In Blender 3d architect Iâ€™m always showing examples of how Blender can help us to create virtual images and models for our projects. As an architect working with projects on a daily basis we sometimes must work with both virtual and physical models of buildings.
