For architects, engineers, and other designers, 3D printing is providing an opportunity to create truly innovative structures. One such project is the world’s first 3D-printed stainless steel bridge that has just opened over a canal in Amsterdam’s Red Light District. The new MX3D Bridge was designed by Joris Laarman Lab with MX3D, a startup founded by Laarman and Arup.

The museum is built to raise awareness about the correct use of plastic and will be 100 per cent recycled by the end of the 10 day exhibition

DelaVegaCanolasso, a Spanish design company, created a museum in Madrid made entirely of recycled plastic. The project’s goal is to get people thinking about plastics and how important it is to use them appropriately.
