Using ProJet 660Pro and Adobe products, WhiteClouds, a provider of 3D printers, designed a pool from 3D printed plans in Ogden, Utah. Here are photos of the plans and the completed project.
WhiteClouds was contracted to build a model of the pool for a homeowner who wanted to see the finished product before construction began.
The dimensions of the model are 5 ft by 4 ft. The model scale is 1:8.
The design process began on May 9 and the pool was completed by May 18. The actual 3D printing process took less than six hours.
The pool lights up different colors at night.
The real-life pool is 60 ft by 40 ft.
The pool’s alcove makes it feel like a natural cave.
Here’s the entrance to the hot tub next to the pool.
Here’s another look at the pool, which is 110,000 gallons.
Here’s how the pool blends into the landscape. In the future, models will be used to help pool contractors building custom pools and the homeowners to visualize the final product.
