In 2012 the increasing affordability<br />
and quality of 3D printing has<br />
seen the process become far more<br />
mainstream, with commercial 3D<br />
printer Cubify (priced at a very<br />
reasonable $1299) and Kickstarterfunded<br />
Formlabs’ Form1 ($3299)<br />
leading the way.<br />
Brands have reacted, utilising the<br />
technology and rethinking manufacturing<br />
processes in order to meet demands<br />
for products that are personalised and<br />
adaptable. Meanwhile hackers, makers<br />
and intrepid amateurs are generating<br />
and sharing their own 3D printing<br />
designs with the help of sites such as<br />
Autodesk’s 123D.<br />
Here, in our round-up of 2012’s design<br />
innovations, we bounce from new-age<br />
architecture and sustainable transport<br />
to playable buildings and shoes that find<br />
the way home for you.<br />
