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.

  1. Open lattice canopy

    The canopy is a genuinely open grid of thin wooden blades over flaring stems. Print friendly simplifies this lattice at small scales; choose Full detail and a larger print to keep the open cells.

  2. Rooftop walkway and rails

    The winding roof walk and lookout rails are the finest parts of the model. A layer height of 0.12–0.16 mm keeps them crisp, and printing slowly helps the tall, thin stems.

  3. One piece with the ground

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

  4. 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.

  5. Colors

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

  6. 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 Metropol Parasol

The Setas de Sevilla began as the Metropol Parasol, a sizable timber structure at La Encarnación square in Seville's old quarter. The city ran a competition that drew 65 entries, and this design won. German architect Jürgen Mayer designed it, and it was completed in April 2011. It measures about 150 by 70 meters (490 by 230 ft) and rises about 26 meters (85 ft).

Its six parasols loosely resemble large mushrooms. The design draws on the cathedral vaults and on the ficus trees of Plaza de Cristo de Burgos nearby. The canopy is built from 3,500 cubic meters of Finnish pine with a micro-laminated structure. The structure has four levels, housing a market, restaurants, an event square, an archaeology museum and a roof terrace with views over the old city.

The site had lain undeveloped from the demolition of the old market building in 1973 until 1990. Work started in June 2005 with a projected cost of 50 million euros and a target completion of June 2007. Technical problems, budget overruns and schedule overruns followed, and a revised scheme cost about 100 million euros. It is promoted as the largest wooden structure in the world.
