The printing process of Odachi restaurant in Kuwait.
produced 38 large-scale panels, the tallest exceeding two meters, in a polymer reinforced with fibreglass, wrapping walls and ceiling into a single continuous surface.
The design, conceived by to echo Hokusai’s Great Wave, was generated through reaction-diffusion logic. Our job was to print it without losing that fluidity.
The ceiling panels overlap in successive layers, building the wave form from below. The deeper challenge was elsewhere: combining the organic pattern with non-planar printing pushed inclination angles beyond 45° in critical zones. Each required individual toolpath development.
