Ukraine's first 3D printed school takes shape in Lviv
A school printed with a 3D printer is in the making in Ukraine. How will this technology help rebuild destroyed cities and what are its advantages?
The first school in Europe to be printed with a 3D printer is being built in Lviv's Holosko district. The new school building will open for 100 students in 2024.
Liga.Tech explains the advantages of such 3D construction, whether a 3D printer can use materials from destroyed buildings, and what else is planned to be built using this technology in Ukraine in the near future.
