Exploring Tactility In the week that I experimented with the laser-cutter at school, I decided to make something for my good friend and old flatmate Pato, who got married a month ago. Being unable to attend the ceremony back in Mexico, I chose to do something that they could touch and smell and that represented…

ACRYLIC I tried cutting acrylic with laser. I wanted to cut words that relate to my project; some results were crisp and detailed, others fell apart (too thin type, and I need to play more with the settings).

Then, send it to print and the laser either cuts or engraves, according to the line outline and color. The…

My current favorite necklace, bought on Etsy. Also, I just finished I love Type 02: Avant Garde, a book edited by Victionary, about the Avant Garde font used in many different projects. Inspirational and a nice visual break from the dense chunks of text I’ve been reading (as of late). ***Cheerful note: starting a laser cut…
