Designing for individuals: Leveraging advanced manufacturing for customised products
Today’s advanced manufacturing technologies offer a unique opportunity for moving away from mass production towards mass customisation in consumer products. This presents a prospect for creative practitioners to examine their role and how their expertise align with these technologies, allowing for design innovation to drive mass customisation and establishing industrial designers as a critical stakeholder within this paradigm shift in production.

Advanced polymer inks for 3D printing - defining the future of 3D additive manufacturing
Some estimates state that 30% of all manufactured goods will be 3D printed in 2030. A particular type of 3D printing is 3D laser lithography with which micro- and nano-sized structures can be prepared. Such structures find wide ranging applications in meta-materials functioning as invisibility cloaks or scaffolds for single (stem) cell interrogation. Today’s inks for 3D printing, however, only allow one material property to be written with one laser wavelength.Working in close collaboration with team members of the Soft …
