<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>To work with the materials of tomorrow, design students across visual arts disciplines need to understand the cutting edge of today. Whether you're modelling in interiors, designing in fashion or constructing for interiors, in your work or as part of a final project, 3D Printing design is an encouraging guide to additive manufacturing within design disciplines. Francis Bitonti gives an insider's view from his design studio on how 3D printing is already shaking up the industry, and where it's likely to go next. Complete with interviews from designers, business owners and 3D-print experts throughout, Bitonti considers whether 3D body scans mean couture for all, how rapid prototyping can change your design method and if 3D printing materials can enhance medical design, amongst other areas of this emerging method of manufacture. This is inspirational reading for the designers of tomorrow.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>To work with the materials of tomorrow, design students across visual arts disciplines need to understand the cutting edge of today.

It is a unique instrument for the understanding of the third industrial revolution. I would strongly recommend this book to my students. *proposal review<br/>Niccolo Casas, R.I.S.D. Rhode Island School of Design, USA / Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, UK<br><br>Francis Bitonti's luminous book calls attention to the extraordinary opportunities afforded in this dazzling era of disruptive technology, painting a breathtaking portrait of a bold new world.<br/>Evan Douglis, Dean, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, USA<br><br>I highly recommend this book to any designers wanting to delve deeper into the world of 3D printing. It is full of great ideas and case studies, and successfully introduces additive manufacturing from the ground up, sharing the author's insight, passion and involvement in emerging trends.<br/>Anatol Just, Digital Manufacturing Technical Demonstrator, London Metropolitan University, UK<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Francis Bitonti </b>is a designer who specialises in cutting-edge digital design and manufacturing technologies.
