Story
A 3D-printed concrete base
In 2020 the Corail table brought Roche Bobois a world first in furniture; its base is made of concrete with a 3D printer. The base can be customized: its shape and size are chosen, and a weaving effect is applied wherever desired while the result is watched live.
Printed layer by layer
The digitally controlled nozzle of the giant 3D printer deposits a snake of concrete that hardens as it layers, in a continuous movement from bottom to top. The shape of the base is reminiscent of polypore mushrooms embedded in trees, corals on their reef or huge baroque shells.
