Lithic design and additive manufacturing – A feasible partnership for the circular economy

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a research aimed at elucidating the value and role of emerging technologies in architecture and design, with a particular focus on additive manufacturing and multi-material technology for the production of modular and sustainable components through the recycling of stone waste. Research in the fields of architecture, materials engineering, and the environment has been compared with experiments conducted in creating products using stone-derived material manufactured through both additive and traditional subtractive processes. The potential of additive manufacturing through the recovery of stone waste is evident in visually and functionally innovative, versatile, and environmentally friendly products and components.   Article info Received: 10/09/2023; Revised: 04/10/2023; Accepted: 18/10/202
