Our vision is to create and provide architects and the construction industry the freedom to design without limitations through innovative 3D printable wooden paste technology.

ABOUT US
We are Eindhoven University of Technology Built environment students within an Honors Academy project focused on developing sustainable printing technology.
MISSION
Our project aims to provide architects and the construction industry the freedom to design without limitations. Here at TreeD, we aim to make the creation of unique, non-traditional wooden parts possible through the development of a 3D printable wooden paste, an elaborated building technology!

Problem Definition
The construction industry is currently limited by traditional timber and requires a solution to unlock new design possibilities of organic shapes; therefore, an unconventional building technology needs to be developed. We believe that our project could be the key solution to this problem: 3D printed wood!

"The way we build today is not sustainable — it’s a carbon time bomb that the planet can no longer afford."

We must act now.
