Scanning is used as a visual and procedural tool—capturing real bodies and objects to build references for sculpture, renderings, and campaign elements. The process offers fidelity, scale, and spatial data that feeds back into both digital and physical workflows.
The scans generated serve as starting points for multiple workflows: from digital modeling and sculptural prototyping to campaign visuals and installation planning. This process enables continuity between physical and digital mediums, giving us full control over how form is shaped, interpreted, and ultimately built—both virtually and in real space.
One of the first steps in our development process often involves 3D scanning—capturing physical form to create a foundation for sculptural, visual, or digital work. We primarily use handheld scanners and LiDAR-based methods to gather high-fidelity spatial data. These tools allow us to document texture, volume, and geometry with precision, whether we’re scanning a body, an object, or a spatial context.

We use 3D printing to create sculptural forms, footwear prototypes, and accessory elements that operate both independently and in conversation with garments. These pieces are printed in parts, assembled, and finished to scale—merging industrial precision with personal design logic.
Each sculpture begins as a high-resolution scan or digital model, refined through CAD software for structural feasibility and design intent. From there, we divide the form into printable segments, optimizing for scale, strength, and support structure. These parts are then printed using FDM technology and assembled manually, allowing for large-format figures that preserve intricate detail across the surface.
For smaller pieces or finer finishes, we use SLA or MSLA printers with resin, which capture high fidelity in form and texture. After printing, each piece goes through a post-processing phase that includes curing, sanding, bonding, and coating—blending precision with hand-led decisions that align with the sculptural goals of the work.

Our work in physical technology is not just about fabrication—it’s about building new bridges between the digital and material worlds. From early scan captures to fully realized sculptures and prototypes, every piece represents an exploration of form, precision, and future-facing design. By merging advanced manufacturing with individual vision, we aim to set a new standard for how technology shapes tangible realities.
