Unream

Unream is a lamp produced with multi-material voxel 3D printing. The surface is covered with lenticular lenses that are printed together with the color content. Unream shows different colors from different viewing angles, so the object appears to display a moving image when a person walks past. The lamp acts as an object in daylight and as a light source at night. The height is 220 mm and the width is 100 mm. A computational workflow assigns material properties to each voxel, which allows optical textures on free-form surfaces.

Super Ego

Super Ego, an art project that satirises consumer culture and the impact of social media on people. The project aims to criticise the artificial feeding of people's egos through likes and followers on social media platforms such as Instagram.

Hot 20S

Hot 20S is a smartphone with a color changing back cover. The back cover combines photochromic ink and luminescent ink in one finish. In daylight, ultraviolet light turns the surface blue violet and reveals a graphic pattern. In a dark environment, the same surface glows blue green and shows the opposite effect. Three color states are produced without any power consumption. The finish is made through twenty processing steps, careful polishing and controlled color mixing. The aim is to add surprise and emotional value to daily phone use.

Infinity

Infinity is a smartphone with a back cover that creates a repeating light reflection effect. Mirror silver plating is applied to the lower and upper layers of the back cover, and a gap between them lets light reflect many times. A silkscreen pattern allows light to pass through selected areas. The result is a three-dimensional light effect within a slim body measuring 163 by 76 by 7.7 millimetres. The light colour can be changed in the phone settings. Different light effects can be set for message alerts, so notifications are visible without turning on the screen.

The Good Cup

The Good Cup is a cutting-edge sustainable paper cup featuring an integrated paper lid that folds into place effortlessly, eliminating the need for plastic. One of the advantages is that it is produced using the same machines as those used for traditional paper cups. Switching to The Good Cup translates into a 40 percentage reduction on storage space, transportation volume and carbon footprint. The impact of The Good Cup creates savings at the point of production, helping to alleviate the environmental crisis by removing plastic, one lid at a time.

Jotape 3D Duo

The idea was to create an image that brings all the features of the product through visual elements like the cushion and the foam. Thus giving the sensation of softness that the product needed. The inspiration was the common materials of the day to day. The floating elements bring through the soft and round shapes the sensation of softness and lightness. Even though it was a simple representation, the result was thought of something different from the usuall. The biggest challenge was that through a few elements and textures the sensation the product needed.
