Synthetic Reality’s collaboration with FAB all things progresses.  Chainmail is now available for the iPhone on line with other models coming on line.

Chainmail_1

Designed to simulate chain mail it is an ideal demonstration of the potential of 3D printing.  Printed in red nylon the interwoven rings provide a dynamic surface behind which the phone may still be seen.

Chainmail_3The perfect accessory for a chainmail dress, perhaps.  The concept alludes to virtual security using a more ancient version of protection.

FAB all things

Synthetic Reality’s first product is on the shelves.  Baubles are ear rings designed to be both ancient and futuristic.  The original design invovled interlocking cups but through the process of digital printing this has mellowed into these examples in nylon and stainless steel.

 The stainless steel version opened up a space between front and back.  The posibilities of printing metals has become available much sooner than Synthetic Reality expected.

Working with FAB all things has given rise to new thoughts about old things, and dreams of new ones.  www.faballthings.com
