en.Wedoany.com Reported - Lamáquina (Barcelona, Spain), an additive manufacturing service provider based in Barcelona, has used large-format robotic additive manufacturing (LFAM) technology to produce 38 custom wall and ceiling panels for Odachi, a Japanese restaurant in Kuwait. These panels are printed using recycled PETG material containing 30% glass fiber, with individual panels exceeding 2 meters in length.

Odachi restaurant features 3D-printed walls.

The geometry of the panels was developed with input from architect Seba Orabi, with the design drawing on Japanese cultural elements, particularly the dynamic lines of the traditional Odachi sword and Katsushika Hokusai's woodblock print "The Great Wave off Kanagawa." Each panel was computationally generated using reaction-diffusion logic, creating an organic and continuous wave effect when assembled. During manufacturing, the natural layered surface of the extruded material was intentionally preserved to enhance the visual texture of the 3D ripples.

Lamáquina directly produced these parts through additive manufacturing, eliminating the need for molds or intermediate production steps. This direct manufacturing approach has been applied to several large-scale architectural installations worldwide.
