3D Printed Panels for the “Bucky Dome“

Panels are being 3D printed and will soon be heading to the “Bucky Dome“ in Carbondale, IL as Mighty Buildings works to construct a state-of-the-art 3D printed Visitor Center at the R. Buckminster Fuller Dome Home using our Mighty Kit System. At the heart of the Mighty Buildings process is our patented proprietary LUMUS™ panel material that is stronger yet lighter than concrete and far more sustainable. Composed of 60% sustainably sourced & recycled materials, this composite stone uses less material helping us to move closer to our goal of a zero-waste production process. Our parametric panels are insulated and milled in-house so that they arrive ready for installation. We’ll be sharing more updates on the RBF Visitor Center in the coming weeks, so stay tuned! #futurist #sustainability #architect #geodesicdome #ecodesign #3dprinting
