Breaking free from traditional construction constraints in architecture?


Meeting with Sylvain Noizet, a Visionary Architect Collaborating with Constructions-3D

In our ongoing exploration of cutting-edge architectural design, we are proud to spotlight Sylvain Noizet, a renowned architect from cabinet Sylvain Pierre Jean firm, who has significantly contributed to the evolution of 3D concrete printing in modern architecture. A graduate of the prestigious St Luc Tournai and Paris Val de Seine schools, Sylvain Noizet has quickly made his mark in the world of architecture.

As the Vice President of the Architecture Academy of Arras and an administrator of the CAUE of Pas-de-Calais, Sylvain has brought his expertise and vision to various large-scale projects. His international career has taken him from Nanjing to London, Tampere to Paris and Lille, before establishing SPJ Architectes in 2018. His journey is a testament to his commitment to innovation and architectural excellence.

Among his notable projects is France's first ERP constructed in Super Adobe for Ecoland, demonstrating his interest in sustainable and innovative construction solutions. His collaboration with Constructions-3D has led to revolutionary projects such as Le Pavillon – the first building in France made with 3D concrete printing – and The Welcome Center of the Citadelle des Savoir-Faire, thus realizing the entire complex of the Citadelle des Savoir-Faire. These accomplishments perfectly illustrate his ability to integrate the latest 3D printing technologies into unique and avant-garde architectural designs.

Sylvain Noizet's contribution to contemporary architecture, especially in the field of 3D concrete printing, is not only innovative but also inspiring. His vision and expertise continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in architecture, in close collaboration with Constructions-3D.


Breaking Free from Traditional Constraints in Architecture with 3D Printing: Perspectives and Testimonials

In the world of architecture, innovation is key to pushing the boundaries of the possible. The advent of 3D concrete printing is revolutionizing architectural shapes and working methods, offering new perspectives in terms of design, durability, and regulatory compliance. This groundbreaking technology is transforming how architects approach construction, enabling more complex designs, and fostering sustainable building practices. Through the testimonials of industry experts and pioneers, we see how 3D printing in concrete is not just a trend, but a significant step towards a more innovative and efficient future in architecture.



"The design of the Tower, a major component of the Citadelle des Savoir-Faire, perfectly illustrates the impact of 3D printing on modern architecture. This tower, with its three curved and fluid faces, would have been difficult to achieve with traditional methods. 3D printing not only makes it easier to create these complex shapes but also paves the way for increased creativity and pushed technical boundaries." - Sylvain Noizet

Advantages of 3D Concrete Printing

3D concrete printing offers significant advantages over traditional construction methods. It reduces material usage, thereby lowering the carbon footprint. Furthermore, advancements in decarbonized materials, such as inks made from clay or sediments, promise even more sustainable construction solutions.



The Future of 3D Concrete Printing in Architecture

Sylvain Noizet envisions a future where architects will use digital models, available online and printable globally, radically changing the approach to architecture. This technique, combined with digitalization and BIM (Building Information Modeling) design, effectively transforms BIM models into actual buildings without any loss of information.


The collaboration with Constructions-3D has been a springboard for Sylvain Noizet, enabling him to experiment and innovate in his architectural designs. 3D concrete printing opens up unexplored horizons in architecture, promising an era of more sustainable, creative constructions in tune with digital advancements.
