Design ElementsAll the design elements of the boxes are either hand poured and painted resin pieces or 3D printed from my own designs.

Hand-linedI construct the box lining from repurposed material.

Resin ArtworkIn addition to the 3D printed elements, I add hand-done resin artwork individually designed for each box, so no two are exactly alike.

A bit more about 3d printingOnce I come up with an idea for a print, we go into a computer design program specifically geared towards 3d printers. In the software we can put in the design and it "translates" it into the language that the 3d printer understands. Once we finish a design, we then send the file over to my little workshop (currently my living room) where the 3d printer gets to work.
The material used for the print is a non-toxic plastic called PLA. PLA is a polymer made from renewable resources. It is not petroleum-based and is made from plants such as corn, sugar beet pulp, or sugarcane. |
