3D Printed Record

3D printed records push the limits of what is currently possible given the precision of digital fabrication tools available to consumers today. These records were generated algorithmically from digital audio data and printed on a UV-cured resin 3D printer to micron precision. Though the audio quality is low, the records are meant to be a demonstration of the current state of the technology and encourage discussion about the broader implications that 3D printing has for the future of personal fabrication.

Cogeretur

Human relationship with the environment has always had ups and downs. Cogeretur tries to be a visual discussion that criticise this relationship, adding value to the discussion trough Art. Cogeretur is a Digital Art project that "explore the forced relationship between the actions of man and nature". It comprehend twelve (12) pieces of art for a full exploration of the concept. For a comprehensive state, the project includes 6 still artworks and 6 motion artworks to present as a progressive action linked to the evolution of the concept. Cogeretur is the Latin word for imposed.

Pebble Garden Machine

The pebble garden machine is an additive manufacturing process developed for dry landscape design. It deploys coarse randomized aggregates, using epoxy resin as a binder and is assembled by an industrial robot into three-dimensional structures. It is perhaps the first application of 3D printing for dry landscape design and fabrication, creating counterintuitive geometric features such as tapering walls, cantilevering edges and low spanning arches. Overall artefacts have natural, man-made and machine aspects that are beautiful and breathtaking, capable to be produced at a fast rate.

Abstract Compositions

Abstract Compositions is a series of 3D illustrations where He explores different compositions using basic shapes, soft lights and pastel colors to create different balanced spaces. For this project the tools used are Cinema 4D for the creation of the different spaces, Octane for the rendering and Adobe Photoshop for adding the last details and retouching.

Loom

Loom is an expandable, adaptable, wearable and flexible 3D printed dress that adapts to all body types and body changes. Since we aren’t able to 3D print fabrics yet, Loom explores the possibilities of creating wearable 3D printed textiles with structures that are designed in relation to function, anatomy, movement, and utility. 3D printing in the fashion industry can be revolutionary and helpful if it is designed with functionality and the human body in mind. Loom proves that 3D printing clothing is more feasible, affordable, adaptable and possible than we think.

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.
