7 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.
- The curved shell
The bandshell is a thin curved surface standing at one end of the bowl of seating. Print friendly is the safer setting for it at small sizes; Full detail suits a large print or a fine nozzle.
- A shallow bowl of steps
The seating spreads in a wide, shallow bowl, so most of the model lies in the plan rather than the height. Scaling the print up keeps the bowl and the buildings around it distinct.
- One piece with the ground
The Hollywood Bowl 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. The Hollywood Bowl 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 the Hollywood Bowl
The Hollywood Bowl is an open-air amphitheater that also serves as a public park, cut into a hollow of the Hollywood Hills that rise over Los Angeles. The bowl in its name is the concave meadow, first known as Daisy Dell, that holds the seating. The site was picked in 1919 by William Reed, working with his son H. Ellis Reed, for the Theatre Arts Alliance; good acoustics and a short trip to downtown Hollywood decided it. The Bowl opened on July 11, 1922, with a stage of wooden platforms and canvas.
The Bowl is known for its bandshell. A clean-lined white shell, built by the Allied Architects as a transite skin on a metal frame, stood from 1929 to 2003; for the 2004 season a somewhat larger, acoustically improved shell took its place. The new one picks up the front arch of the 1926 version, the broad profile of Lloyd Wright's wooden shell of 1928 and the plain white finish of the 1929 shell. Hodgetts + Fung designed it, with Arup's local office as structural engineer.
The County of Los Angeles owns the Bowl and was deeded the land in 1924. The Hollywood Bowl Orchestra plays there, the Los Angeles Philharmonic spends its summers there, and hundreds of musical events fill each year. Tickets in the early days were held at 25 cents under the slogan "popular prices will prevail". In 2023 the venue joined the National Register of Historic Places.
