There is a whole industry of houses from printed 3D coffee accessories. If you can dream about it, a plastic filament (and maybe even spent coffee) can revive it. Tampers, Aeropress accessories, you call it. A few years ago, the Brewist even released the entire line of free 3D printing materials. But you can never outdo each other, Starbucks He said “Saint Orange Mocha Frappuccino” and 3D printed the whole damn store.
As reported New AtlasThe recent store is located in Brownsville, Texas and is the first printed in 3D Starbucks in the United States. The cafe is relatively miniature, only 1,400 square feet and only offers pickup and travel; There are no situations available so that people can spin.
The building opened at the beginning of this week was created by a German company Peri 3D Construction And it definitely has a 3D appearance printed. It consists of a “cement mix” used in layers by a robotic extruder using a pre -loaded plan. After the main structure, the employees entered and added the final accents: windows, patio, finishing, etc.
The reaction to the recent Starbucks was, say, so far mixed. Most people They underestimate the brutalist architecture or THey, the hatred of coffee “woke up”. Some just wanted a Dutch bros.
However, I’m not like them. I don’t think it looks half bad. Although there is certain that Starbucks is playing with the ability to produce mass buildings seemingly overnight. Maybe it’s a bit too on the brand.
