12 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 broad, low quadrangle
This model is much wider than it is tall, so its detail sits low and spread out. Print it at a larger size, and use layers of 0.12–0.16 mm for clean edges on the long wings and the roofline.
- One piece with the ground
Somerset House 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. Somerset House 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 Somerset House
Somerset House is a neoclassical complex on the Strand in central London, just east of Waterloo Bridge and overlooking the River Thames. Sir William Chambers designed the present building, which was begun in 1776; Victorian wings were added at each end in 1831 and 1856. It replaced a Tudor palace, Old Somerset House, that Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset, had begun on the same ground.
The Georgian quadrangle was built as a grand public building to house government offices and public-benefit societies. Before the Victoria Embankment went up in the late 1860s, the ground ran down to the Thames itself. Old Somerset House had been home to royal consorts and later served as a barracks and for storage before demolition began in 1775.
The old house on the site had been the setting for the Somerset House Conference of 1604, which ended a nineteen-year war with Spain. Since the early 21st century the complex has been redeveloped as a cultural center. It holds a community of arts organizations, creative businesses and artist studios, with the Courtauld Gallery among its occupants, and it stages exhibitions, performances, films and other public events through the year.
