Tag Tag

TAG TAG is designed to distinguish one’s disposable cup from others to reduce waste. Both the paper and tag are made from food grade materials. Paper cups in events are often thrown away if mixed up with other people’s. But no one really cares about such waste. Instead of using a marker and pen to sign your name on the cup, you can simply scratch some tag off and make any pattern you like to distinguish yours from others. So after the break between meetings, you can still find your cup.

LELO HEX

The advances and innovations of the HEX condom are rooted in its unique reengineered hexagonal structure. This design, comprising a network of individual hexagonal cells, assigns a number of game-changing benefits to the condom. Taking cues from architecture and from nature, the material is incredibly thin overall, but without compromising on strength and protection. The raised structure is on the inside surface, for an increase in grip and a more comfortable fit.

Perpetual

Perpetual is a 3D printed kinetic pendant with material available in resin, brass, silver and other metals. A new 3D printing method that enables interlocking structure was applied to allow the three layers of cubes spin in which the axis of rotation is free to assume any orientation by itself. Each layer of cubic lattice breaks the notion of containment-the inner layers break though the cubic volume of its sequel container. The digital modeling process involves constant awareness of 3D Printing parameters and constrains, which bring design and manufacture an integrated process.

Torque

Torque is a 3D printed decorative accessory that captures the spirit of legendary 1970 Charger from film Fast&Furious with material options in resin,brass,silver and other metal alloys.It has two overlaying layers of Voronoi grids that offer a strong alternation to Cartesian grids with its structural loads remain evenly distributed.The changing shape of grids reflects the Doppler effect, here, a car with an accelerating velocity.The digital modeling process involves constant awareness of 3D Printing parameters and constrains, which bring design and manufacture an integrated process.

Flies trap lid

The flies trap lid is designed to catch flies. Compare with normal coffee cup lid, it not only has the traditional function but also can give a second life to disposable coffee cups. When people finish drinking, just press the trap bottom before throwing, the flies will be easily attracted by the residual coffee smell. Since this lid has a special conical structure hole, once the flies get in, it is hard to escape.

Blow by Blow

News Corp's Blow by Blow campaign was created to help promote coverage of the longest running Australian electoral campaign in a generation. The images, created in 3D, show the political armoury Australian representatives use as weapons against one another, and furthermore highlight three of the key political issues of modern times. The illustrations marry modern day political issues with brutal medieval weaponry. At first glance, the viewer may not notice the political issue, but on closer inspection the underlying message comes to life.
