‘Modular’ 3D printed shoes on show at the V&A
A shoe created by avante-garde footwear designer Marloes ten Bhöer called the ‘Rapidprototypedshoe’ is on display as part of an exhibition entitled Power of Making, which runs 6 September 2011 to 2 January 2012 at the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), London. Produced using Objet multi-material 3D printing, the Rapidprototypedshoe is designed and manufactured in a modular way so that it can be dismantled and reassembled for the purpose of replacing parts.
