Abstract
There is a growing attention toward 3D Printing systems, though the risk to create unsustainable technology-driven processes is high. As Sustainability is one of the main topics of all agendas, there is the need to move toward coherent Sustainable 3D Printing systems (S-3DP). Human Centred Design (HCD) could be used to mitigate these threats as it may link Sustainability, Design, and manufacturing. Further studies on the role of meanings (i.e.: DDI) can up to interesting research avenues on which discussing scientific advances. This work investigates the relations between S-3DP and HCD. A research convergence against the “HCD Pyramid” is also addressed to show research potentialities and applications. Results discussed in this work suggest that HCD can trigger new research avenues for S-3DP by converging Sustainability, modern manufacturing, and meaning-driven design thinking.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
