paper mache

[work in process]

Packaging of the future?

 

Inspired by the work of designer Beer Holthuis, our first test of paper-based additively fabricated packaging for one of our porcelain pendant light shades [additively fabricated, of course]. 3d printed paper mache, designed specifically for the part it will protect.

 

Our first print failed about 1/2 of the way in when the nozzle clogged with a big clump.

 

Next test - recycled newspaper... and a larger nozzle.

MATERIAL: 3d-printed paper mache

LOCATION: Salt Lake City, UT
