Introduction to 3D Design and Printing
A course by Agustín Arroyo

It was some time ago now that printing was freed from the paper realm into the third dimension. 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.

Explore the design and 3D printing processes, from the initial idea to the moment when you finally have the finished product in your hands—a quick and easy road for anyone with access to a computer and a few basic tools.

What is this course's project?

Combine creativity and functionality to design and print a 3D object for everyday use.
