VISI
Concept
The idea behind the project Visi is to create a sculpture which takes inspiration from the classics, but it is made using today's manufacturing technologies.
It has always been a privilege of few people to have a personalised sculpture.
Nowadays, it is relatively simple to buy a 3D model of yourself; unfortunately, often most of the time these objects are not appealing and look like toys.
With a view of combining cutting-edge technologies and classical reminiscences, VISI sculptures put the person at the centre of the project.
The use of additive manufacturing allows producing one-off pieces without having an impact on the final cost and quality.

Production Process
The VISI sand series is produced in collaboration with SANDHELDEN, who patented a manufacturing process that allows to hardening 3D printed pieces using the finest quartz sand.
The manufacturing process in 3D printing is not bound to conventional restrictions such as undercuts or quantities. The resulting flexibility allows the production of unique individual bespoke pieces.
Each piece is produced under the highest production standard in Germany using either natural Quartz Sand or Graphitic Carbon, both materials have an incredible and distinctive look and feel.
