title = "Additive manufacturing in skin systems: trends and future perspectives",
abstract = "This chapter investigates the potential of additive manufacturing technologies for fa{\c c}ade and building skin applications and discusses methods, technical possibilities and current limitations compared to standard construction. State-of-the-art techniques for construction 3D printing are reviewed, providing insights into the field{\textquoteright}s evolution and employable materials. Following this classification, the second part analyses 56 recent projects that engage with the design and realization of additive facades, including early research experiments, prototypes and construction-ready applications realized with different manufacturing approaches. The chapter describes these works, mapping their technology readiness level and discussing the potential for future developments. From the analysis a few research trends are identified and described to discuss the potential for advanced customization, functional integration and sustainable materialization of building skins through 3D printing.",
