Helix Ring yellow with box

39.92

A tactile and flexible spiral loop that fits all wrist sizes. It is soft to the skin and very comfortable to wear. Its colourful and amorphous lines were carefully designed to create structural strength while keeping the essential sculptural elements. The result is a thin and light structure, different from each angle you look at it.

Description

The Helix Ring
A tactile and flexible spiral loop that fits all hand sizes. It is soft to the skin and very comfortable to wear. Its colorful and amorphous lines were carefully designed to create structural strength while keeping the essential sculptural elements. The result is a thin and light structure, different from each angle you look at it.

The Box
Carefully designed around the Helix Ring shape, this cylindrical envelope is made of a round exterior surface and an amorphous smooth interior surface that wraps around the ring and keep it safe. The box has four small legs that positions the ring elegantly as a centre piece on a desk or side table. It displays and magnifying the rings presence in space.

Design
This object’s linear pattern was designed with a mix of hand sketching and unique 3D scripting tools, giving us full control over this complex and flexible shape. We can zoom in and work from very close to the object surface to achieve the perfect balance between flexibility, durability and aesthetics.

We manufacture our products using high end 3D printing technology, within the European market and closer to customers. This avoids overseas shipping and reduces storage needs drastically. We strive to be as environmentally sustainable as possible

Size

Overall Helix Ring outer size is 15x30mm. Please note that the helix ring is a flexible structure that can fit all sizes comfortably

Design & Technology

Technology
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is a 3D Printing technique that uses the heat of a high power laser to bind particles of powdered material together for the creation of a solid structure.

Material
Nylon Polyamide 12 is a high performance polymer. It has outstanding physical properties and it is mainly used in automotive, aeronautic, sport, and textile applications. It was optimized to be used for laser sintering material. The helix elastic behaviour comes form the PA12 material natural flexibility and mechanical properties.

Process
The design development starts in our London studio using a unique set of 3D software technology and scripting. Once the digital model is ready, we send it to our UK & EU trusted additive manufacturing (3D printing) partners.
