Open Frame is a design tool that allows users to upload and modify their designs onto a user-friendly platform and 3D print them as space frames. Highly versatile, it can adapt to a wide array of design projects with varying levels of complexity. The effectiveness of Open Frame lies in its use of standard desktop 3D printers and readily available materials, significantly lowering costs compared to other large-scale digital fabrication methods. Ultimately, Open Frame uses technology to open up possibilities for more individuals to explore and expand the limits of architectural design without incurring excessive cost.
