Tableware for Martí Guixé's Ex-Designer
Martí Guixé's Ex-Designer is a bar where customers can have a beer with tapas while watching the printers build up the tiles, chairs and utensils that make up the space itself.
In a bar where the end goal is to have every object be 3D-printed, tableware posed a challenge. Although food-grade, the PLA plastic usually used in 3D-printing degrades, leaks and breaks easily after a few uses, as well as being difficult to wash. 3D-printed ceramic tableware, made of stoneware and glazed for a non-porous finish, allows for the robustness and ease of use of traditional ceramics while fitting into the Ex-Designer's concept.
