Introduction of the workshop:

This workshop will teach you how to design and fabricate custom 3D-printed wall panels for interior or facade applications. Through a mix of presentations, tutorials, and hands-on sessions, you’ll learn essential design principles, explore pattern generation, and gain control over the fabrication process using Rhino, Grasshopper, and desktop 3D printers.

3D-Printed Wall Panels workshop focuses on both design and fabrication. You will start by developing your panel designs in Rhino and Grasshopper, integrating connections and assembly systems, and learning how to adapt your ideas for 3D printing. On the fabrication side, you’ll create custom toolpaths and G-codes in Grasshopper, optimizing the 3D printing process for your designs.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have completed a modular interior wall panel composed of nine elements, ready for assembly.

The workshop will introduce different approaches to designing a 3D-printable wall panel system. You will explore techniques applicable to home 3D printers using conventional materials like PLA filament spools and larger-scale 3D printing technologies, including concrete 3D printing and large-format FDM printers.

What You’ll Learn?

Master design principles for 3D-printed wall designs.

Generate and refine patterns with algorithms in Grasshopper.

Learn custom G-code generation for precise control over printing.

Complete a 3D-printed panel prototype.

What You’ll Use?

Content

Introduction + PAACADEMY Updates (06:24)

3D Printing Design Intro (46:57)

3D Printed Panel Design Presentation

This session features Victoria Rosovsky’s presentation on 3D printed wall panel design, showcasing her project Brick by Bit and her award-winning Initiative 99 entry while introducing tools, workflows, and key fabrication concepts for the workshop.

Grasshopper Parametric Surface (45:21)

Building Parametric Surfaces with Grasshopper

This session covers how to create a parametric surface in Grasshopper using curves, random transformations, and key components like Series, Move, and Loft — with a strong focus on data structure logic.

Parametric Sweep Rail Generation (27:27)

Data-Driven Sweep Curve Generation

This session explores how to create a dynamic sweep in Grasshopper by generating rail curves, shifting lists, and managing data trees. It includes curve manipulation, list operations, and visualization with the tree branch tool.

Grid Deformation to Mesh (38:42)

Deforming Grid into Printable Mesh

This session walks through the step-by-step process of generating a deformed parametric base grid using Grasshopper, scaling and transforming curves into smooth mesh geometries optimized for 3D printing.

Angle Analysis for 3D-Printing (40:54)

Mesh Analysis, Angles & Attractors

This session covers mesh deconstruction and angle analysis in Grasshopper for 3D printability, using vector visualization, color-coded gradient mapping, attractor curves, and mesh cleanup strategies.

Pattern Panel Design (40:44)

Pattern, Surface & Panel Fabrication

This session explores the step-by-step process of creating seamless 2D pattern panels using Grasshopper, transitioning into 3D surface manipulation techniques for panel fabrication and introducing strategies for 3D printing and mounting.

3D Printed Wall Mounts (36:04)

Mount Modeling, Slicing & Printing

This session walks participants through the step-by-step modeling and 3D printing process of creating a custom French cleat mounting system for wall panels, including Rhino modeling, Grasshopper recap, and slicing setup.

3D-Print Setup (51:10)

STL Export, Slicing & Printing Preperation

This session concludes the design and prototyping workflow by exporting the panel as STL, setting optimized slicing parameters in Bambu Studio, and preparing the model for 3D printing with efficient settings.

Custom G-code Basics (30:56)

Custom G-code generation in Grasshopper

This session introduces the theory and practice of generating custom G-codes in Grasshopper for 3D printing, including key parameters like line width, extrusion rate, volumetric flow, and coordinate systems, to achieve high-quality, single-line perforated panels.

Custom G-code with Grasshopper (34:38)

Grasshopper G-code Generation Workflow

This session walks through the complete Grasshopper-based workflow for generating a custom G-code to 3D print geometries with precise control over movement, extrusion, and layering.

Live G-code 3D Print (18:50)

Custom G-Code Print

This session demonstrates the live testing of a custom G-code print, highlights printing results, troubleshoots common extrusion issues, and explores thick-layer FDM printing techniques.

Perforated Wall (30:05)

Perforated Wall Layer Print

This session guides participants through creating a custom perforated wall geometry using Grasshopper, generating G-code, and adjusting extrusion settings for thick-layer 3D printing.

3D Printing Q&A Session (36:42)

G-Code Printing Setup

This session answers participants' questions and walks through setting up and troubleshooting a 3D printer using custom G-code, adapting scripts for clay printing, optimizing print settings, and visualizing toolpaths using Grasshopper plugins.

Important Notes:

Materials include PLA filament and 0.4mm and 0.8mm nozzles (Demonstration prints will be done with 0.8mm nozzle).

Please ensure you have all the software installed before the workshop starts. Software installation is NOT a part of the workshop.
