This project explores the creation of a 3D printing material derived from loess, a natural sediment covering about 10% of Earth's land area. Primarily formed by wind, loess can also originate from glacial activity. When glaciers grind rocks into a fine powder, streams carry this sediment away, depositing it at the glacier’s edge, where it accumulates as loess. This natural material presents a sustainable source for innovative 3D printing applications, harnessing a naturally occurring resource with a unique texture and structure for design and construction.
