Description of Nanhai Art Center architectural model

【Project introduction】The Nanhai Art Center, located in Foshan, Guangdong Province, covers an area of approximately 59,455 square meters. As the core of the Nanhai Cultural Zone, it includes a grand theater, a museum, a sports center, and related supporting facilities. Integrating functions such as art, culture, commerce, and leisure entertainment, it is poised to become a new cultural landmark in the region and a fresh symbol for the Guangzhou-Foshan urban area in the future.

Designed by MAD Architects, the Nanhai Art Center incorporates the grand overhanging eaves of traditional Southern Guangdong architecture to create a smooth and continuous roofline for its three main structures. The eaves feature a semi-transparent white ETFE membrane structure, creating ample open space underneath for diverse interactions between people, architecture, and the surrounding landscape. The roof design showcases eco-friendly technologies, including cadmium telluride photovoltaic power generation, rainwater collection, and vertical greening, illustrating a green and carbon reduction initiative. The construction of the Nanhai Art Center is set to commence in 2024, with completion scheduled for 2029.

The Nanhai Art Center’s primary structure is gracefully showcased in pristine white, highlighting its rhythmic form and detailed surface textures. The creation of the distinctive roof posed a significant challenge, involving initial shaping through CNC technology and subsequent meticulous manual polishing and assembly. This demanding step required masterful skills to achieve seamless joints. Additionally, the meticulously crafted roof underwent thorough testing for light transmission, ensuring optimal lighting effects.

The model’s minimalist style makes lighting choices crucial for the overall effect. Concealing wiring, adjusting distance, and managing color temperature pose unique challenges compared to conventional architecture. Due to differences in distance, design, and materials, the lighting effects from the same set of lights within the structure can vary significantly. Addressing these issues requires continuous and meticulous testing.

In addition to the external appearance, we crafted the internal structure to ensure a comprehensive design presentation. During initial testing, we found uneven light transmission on the top surface due to variations in the internal structure. To resolve this, we adjusted the internal structure by dismantling parts of the roof. After multiple optimizations, we successfully achieved the expected design outcomes for various illuminated areas.

We offer comprehensive 3D printing services, including file design optimization, physical model printing, and post-processing services such as sanding and painting. Our 3D printing capabilities allow us to produce detailed and accurate models quickly and efficiently, with a wide variety of materials to meet the specific needs of your project.

Advantages of 3D Printing

Complex Shapes: One of the key benefits of 3D printing is its ability to create highly complex and intricate geometries that would be difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing methods. This makes it ideal for producing intricate architectural models, sculptures, and industrial components.

Fast Turnaround: 3D printing can significantly reduce production time. Once the design is finalized, we can quickly move from concept to finished model, providing faster delivery compared to other techniques like CNC machining or handcrafting.

Cost-Effective: For small runs or prototypes, 3D printing is generally more cost-effective than other manufacturing methods, especially when dealing with complex designs that would require expensive molds or tooling in traditional fabrication.

Versatility of Materials: We offer a wide range of materials to suit different needs, including transparent, semi-transparent, and white resins, as well as ceramics, metals, red wax, and nylon. Each material has its unique properties, such as varying degrees of hardness, flexibility, and durability, providing greater flexibility in model creation.

Material Options: 3D printing supports a variety of materials, including:

Transparent and semi-transparent resins

Ceramics for more rigid and heat-resistant models

Metal for industrial-grade models

Nylon for durable and flexible prints

Red Wax for precision casting molds

Other Specialty Materials like white resin for detailed models

Disadvantages of 3D Printing

While 3D printing has many benefits, it does come with certain limitations:

Material Degradation: Some materials, especially those used for prototypes, can be prone to discoloration or deformation over time, especially when exposed to heat, light, or humidity.

Limited Surface Finishing: Certain materials used in 3D printing do not accept paint or other finishing treatments well, which can limit their use for final presentation models without additional post-processing.

Lower Precision: Although 3D printing is highly accurate for most applications, it has slightly lower precision compared to laser cutting or CNC machining, particularly in terms of fine details and surface smoothness.

Post-Processing Required: Most 3D-printed models require additional work after printing, such as sanding, polishing, or painting, to achieve the desired finish and smooth out imperfections.

Applications of 3D Printing

Our 3D printing services can be applied across various industries, including:

Architectural models

Industrial prototyping

Product design

Medical devices

Creative sculptures

Exhibition pieces
