FASES – vases with faces
Industrial Design
We’ve been working with FDM 3D printing technology for almost 5 years. We know it’s limitations but also wide possibilities. In our eyes it’s not only a tool for prototyping but we believe it’s also a great tool for manufacturing designer objects. After many experiments we developed a work flow that is almost zero waste. We use PLA plastic that is highly recyclable and compostable in industrial facilities. Last year we’ve partnered up with the Reflow company that produces filaments from recycled PET bottles. Now in our practice we use both recycled PET and PLA or recycled PLA. In our objects we only use sustainable thermoplastics without any additives. We don’t use glue or anything else to join our pieces. They are all highly recyclable. We are also working on having the whole ecosystem in our studio, that will allow us to recycle thermoplastics and prepare them for use in 3D printing.
Here we are presenting our new collection of colourful & cheerful vases with faces that show both the quality of materials and process as well as design details that distinguish our designs from others. The objects will be produced on demand, so there will never be a need to stock them. They are very light so even when transported they leave less carbon footprint. They can also be produced by our partners locally, when instructed on how to achieve the quality we seek.
