In a groundbreaking collaboration between RAIN and Tvasta - a leader in C3DP technology - the Goa Coral Reef (GCR) is a concrete 3D-Printed hub for technology and development, showcasing advancements through 3D Printing, Virtual Reality, Augmented reality, Blockchain and IoT. The design intends to showcase the ability of 3d printing through a complex structure that challenges the conventional building techniques. Thus the structure is designed to stand on a fewer number of foundations that make it levitate alongside the Rio de Oreum.
The project also focuses on addressing growing environmental concerns through sustainable construction practices - minimizing material waste, reducing energy consumption, and incorporating eco-friendly materials.
