A compound mobius strip created out of 36 interlocking mobius strips.

All segments are thin mobius strips, and they weave and interlock perfectly through the spaces left between them. Highly complex, and a headache to look at, yet it possesses an inherent mathematical simplicity and beauty.

This model is 3d printed out of a sintered vinyl plastic, which makes it very resilient and bendable. It won't break if you drop it.

Ever lose the little plate with nowhere to put your cup of espresso? It's confusing. Designed to eliminate the need for a plate or coaster, the plateless espresso cup can sit directly on the table without leaving a ring behind. Without the plate, you can move from room to room with your espresso and still have one free hand. You'll find yourself wondering why espresso cups ever got involved with the little plates in the first place. Can hold up to 90ml.

Clothoid.A lamp is created by a mathematical curve formula and then that spline is lofted in 3d CAD software. Resulting form is parametric and adjustable in almost infinite number of combinations.

You can imagine this 3D form as afterimage of one single point in space as it moves, self-intersecting and rotating around, creating this 3D object. Whole shade form is actually one single line... wrapping around itself. Whole 3d printed light shade is created in one piece.

This lamp is available for purchase now on Shapeways. What you will get from Shapeways is 3D printed lamp shade only.

NOTE: Lamp base will be sent separately. Use "contact designer" button on upper right of this page... or send us e-mail to > info (at) alienology.com

A hanging cup for your double espresso the morning after ;-)
It's in such a state that it cannot stand on it's own, so it really needs some support.
Luckily it has :-)
When you order, you will get the Hangover cup and the matching stand in glazed ceramics.

Printed Ceramics
With the current process, the round bottom on the cup will likely show some minor pits in the glazing from a small tripod it stands on during the baking.
And the bottom of the stand/saucer has rougher structure.
The rest of the glazing is fully covering, so it's safe to drink from.

Also available as a more sober version (standalone)

The cup is designed for a double espresso(60 ml), but can hold a maximum of about 90 ml.

Have you ever experienced such a great love for someone that it felt as if your heart was going to burst through your chest? It can even feel as if your entire rib-cage is now filled with your heart.
Inspired by my own experience of falling in love, this is a true artistic expression of a deep and pure love.

Makes a meaningful gift for yourself or that very special loved one.

(Pictured with a necklace. Price is for pendant only)

Featured at multiple design shows including Dutch Design Week, Maker Faire, World Maker Faire, SIGGRAPH, and more!

A smaller version is available both as earrings and as a pendant.

Now you can bring home 3D Printing in style.

3D Photo Frame
is manufactured in strong and flexible polyamide, using SLS (or Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing technology. That's right, each 3D Photo Frame is produced in a machine by printing a digital file layer by layer into a physical object especially for you. This unique manufacturing process makes possible to create the 3D Photo Frame in a single piece without the need to assemble. It also enables to produce the 3D Photo Frame in demand, so it is manufactured only when you buy it and delivered directly to your home. It is made to support photo size 102x152 mm (4x6 inches).

Colors
are always available in white and black, plus Shapeways seasonal colors.

* Due the material's flexibility, it is advised to use 2 support points in each end, rather than 1 in the middle to keep the straight line look

CLIP-IT for iPhone -US edition-

Your charge buddy on the go.

Clip-it for iPhone converts your iPhone charger to a wall dock; making sure that you can easily charge your phone at every wall socket. Unfurnished rooms, hotels and conference rooms are no longer a problem.

Clip-it makes use of your existing Apple Dock Connector to USB Cable. Simply snap it in and lock it by clipping it to your charger. Clip-it is perfectly engineered to hold the latest two generations of original 30 pin Apple charging cables.

Clip-it US is designed for the iPhone 4 & iPhone 4S and the included Apple USB Power Adapter (US version).

The European version of Clip-it is available here.


Clip-it is manufactured by innovative 3D-printing in tough but lightweight polyamide. The surface has a fine texture. The product will be shipped in basic Shapeways packaging. Some powder residue from the 3D-printing process may be found on the product itself; if this is the case, it should be easy to clean off with small tooth sticks & brushes. When you ordered Clip-it in colour it might be wise to clean it with water under the tap, so the dyeing pigments that might still be on the product don’t colour your white Apple gadgets. For further information & support contact the Shapeways customer service.
