About this 3D model

This is my entry for the 3DPI award design challenge. The design of the award incorporates different elements of 3D printing;The cube; often used to symolize 3 dimensions. The cube has exaggerated layers which links to the universal 3D printing principle: building up succesive layers to form a 3D object. The hollow structure inside the cube symbolizes the ability for 3D printers to produce complicated lattice-like structures. The faceted features of the figure; inspired from the 'stl' 3D files; the blueprint for a 3D printer. The figure lifts the symbol of 3D printing symbolizing that together with technology, exceptional humans make the future of 3D printing.
