Shamballa, from the name of the mythological place that symbolizes the city of peace, tranquility and happiness.
A city quoted in a lot of cultural documents for its spirituality and technical advance.

Shamballa

House, Food, Employment, Healthcare are the basic human necessities of life . In our Shamballa we’ll print houses and vertical vegetable gardens of different sizes. There will also be a laboratory for compact desktop printer to make objects (fornitures, biomedical, jewellery, ceramics). Thanks to the collaboration with some artists we are developping a cultural project.

3D print technology can be made available to satisfy the primary needs in a sustainable way

In balance between utopia and scientific pragmatism we developed the model of a village which fits these necessities.
A printed house with a cost that tends to zero made with local materials is put side by side to a vertical 3D printed garden, where hydroponic colture can be realized.
Everybody should cultivate everywhere and get what they need. To make it possible it needs to reduce the cultivation space, the amount of water needed and the chance of atmospherical or animal attacks to increase production. For this reason we choosed hydroponic colture, which consents to get a harvest even where the ground is unusable, with an amount of water that is minimal compared to the traditional colture.
The third element of the village is a lab, in which there are compact 3D printers to realize every kind of production and work.

"Siamo sognatori, siamo realizzatori, siamo Makers: partiamo dalla stampa 3d per salvare il mondo."

Maker Economy

A new model where everything can be produced by yourself, where there is the chance of not depending on some unsurmountable entity that holds the productive monopoly.
