1. A method of producing a structure, comprising the steps of:
- providing an alginate-based powder;
providing at least one binder;
dispensing the alginate-based powder and the binder onto a build platform to form a layer of an alginate-based material; and
forming a flexible three-dimensional object from the alginate-based material on the build platform.
