6 mm tall on a 160 mm print
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- A wide, low venue
The model spreads wide rather than rising, so print it larger to keep the outline crisp, and set layers to 0.12 to 0.16 mm for clean vertical edges.
- One piece with the ground
Brixton Academy is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- 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.
- Colors
Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Brixton Academy takes the building color.
- 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 Brixton Academy
Brixton Academy, formally the O2 Academy Brixton, is a mid-sized venue for concerts in the Lambeth district of Brixton, South London. It stands on Stockwell Road, on ground that had been a private garden before the theater was built. Cinema use began in 1929; 1972 brought a conversion into a discotheque, and in 1983 it became a concert hall. The Academy Music Group owns it.
Thomas Somerford and E. A. Stone were the architects; the building cost £250,000 and opened with a screening of The Singing Fool plus a variety act that the BBC broadcast. Seating came to nearly 3000, though advertising claimed 4500. A 1974 scheme to replace the Grade II listed building with a gas station and motor showroom fell through, and in 1983 Simon Parkes paid £1 for the venue and reopened it as the Brixton Academy.
It has been named best venue at the NME awards 12 times since 1994, and over 50 live albums have come out of shows there. The Smiths gave their last gig on that stage in December 1986; Leftfield reached 137db there in 1996, a decibel record for a live concert; Madonna's 2000 show drew 9 million people online. A crowd crush at the doors in December 2022 left two dead and others seriously hurt, and the venue reopened on April 19, 2024.
