Quintessence Spectrum Series Portable Table Lamp

Jeffrey Geiringer Portable Table Lamp 3D Printing Sunday, 8 November 2026

Quintessence Spectrum Series

Spectrum Series is a limited edition of portable table lamps with three-dimensional printed lattice shades. Each lamp is generated by a parametric process, so every silhouette and lattice pattern differs. The shades are printed from recycled PLA using purpose-written machine code, which gives clean and precise lattice lines. The base recalls an old candlestick holder and can be carried by its stem. The battery powered lamp is switched on and dimmed by touching a small knob on the base. Each lamp is produced only once and includes a certificate of authenticity.

Pulse Functional Writing Instrument

Leila Ensaniat Functional Writing Instrument 3D Printing Saturday, 7 November 2026

Pulse

Pulse is a pen designed as both a writing tool and a sculptural object. The form is inspired by the calm shape of a cloud and appears to float. Generative patterns drawn from nature create biomorphic structures on the surface. Pulse is produced by lost wax casting, a method that reproduces fine organic detail. The pen can be cast in aluminum, silver, bronze or gold, with a polished or brushed finish. The height is 160 mm and the diameter is 13.5 mm. Metal finishing adds depth, texture and a tactile quality to a familiar everyday object.

Mila 3D Printed Vase

Wenkai Xue 3D Printed Vase 3D Printing Friday, 6 November 2026

Mila

Mila is a series of hydroponic vases for indoor plants. The collection includes three sizes, small, medium and large, to suit different planting needs. The shapes are drawn from the chimneys on the roof of Casa Mila, with twisting lines and surface textures refined into a rhythmic form. Each vase is made of VeroClear translucent material and is produced directly with PolyJet 3D printing, without additional processes. A one-piece double-layer structure lets the outer wall and the inner tank overlap, giving the translucent surface a hazy and layered appearance.

Aitable Furniture

Carlos Bañon Furniture 3D Printing Thursday, 5 November 2026

Aitable

Aitable is a dining table supported by three bronze legs. Conventional tables carrying a heavy tabletop require a thick section beneath it. The branching legs of Aitable were shaped with artificial intelligence software that reduces material while maintaining structural performance. Precise 3D printed sand molds were used, and each of the three unique legs was cast in bronze and polished by hand. The polished surfaces create nuanced reflections under changing light. The table measures 1600 by 1000 by 750 millimeters.

The Forum Pavilion

Justin Nardone Pavilion 3D Printing Wednesday, 4 November 2026

The Forum

The Forum is a pavilion designed as a venue for gatherings, public programming and the arts. The structure works as a stage, a screen and a backdrop, so the space can be adapted to different uses. Structure and facade are unified in one language of fluid surfaces made of aerospace grade aluminium. Sixty-six unique panels were shaped by digital sheet forming, without tooling or dies, in under twelve hours. The result is a large, lightweight and modular structure that is quick to produce and can be assembled with basic hand tools.

The Flett Roof Flashing

Scott Flett Roof Flashing 3D Printing Tuesday, 3 November 2026

The Flett

The Flett is a roof flashing designed for standing seam architectural cladding. The flashing is produced by 3D printing in ASA plastic, measures 265 by 50 by 100 millimetres and is 2 millimetres thick. The form under-laps one cladding sheet, allows a change in direction, then overlaps the next sheet. The part is matched to the profile and colour of the roofing sheet, and the material is thermally stable, UV stable and nontoxic. The flashing can be installed in sequence by general trades, and aims to reduce leaks at difficult roof junctions.
