  1. Neoclassical facade detail

    A neoclassical opera house has fine facade detail. Print friendly adapts thin parts to the print scale; Full detail keeps every modeled feature, and a bigger print with a 0.12–0.16 mm layer height keeps it crisp.

  2. One piece with the ground

    The Bolshoi Theatre is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.

  3. Pick the detail for your nozzle

    In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.

  4. Colors

    Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Bolshoi Theatre takes the building color.

  5. File format

    You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.

About the Bolshoi Theatre

Moscow's Bolshoi Theatre is a historic opera house whose original architect was Joseph Bové. The company dates to March 28, 1776, when Catherine II gave Prince Peter Vasilyevich Urusov a license to stage theatrical performances, balls and other entertainment. On December 30, 1780, the company, working from the Petrovka Theatre, started staging plays and operas, which laid the foundations of the Bolshoi.

Between 1821 and 1824 Joseph Bové built the first version of the current building, using a competition-winning design by Andrei Mikhailov that was judged too costly to complete. It opened on January 18, 1825 as the Bolshoi Petrovsky Theatre. Extensive fire damage in 1853 led to another reconstruction, by Alberto Cavos. During World War II a bomb damaged the structure, and it was repaired.

Rebuilt and renovated several times, the main building stands as a landmark for both Moscow and Russia, and its neoclassical facade appears on the Russian 100-ruble banknote. The building was closed for restoration between July 2005 and October 2011 and re-opened on October 28, 2011. The work included restoring the acoustics and the original imperial decor. Its ballet and opera companies are counted among the oldest and best known of their kind in the world.
