Production Technology
3D jewellery forms are designed to present 2D data visualisation manufactured through a 3D print technique, so that every individual has an opportunity to wear unique jewellery. Precious metal and opals are used in the collection. The colourful reflection in opals represents the colourful day and the night life of London.
Design Challenge
1. In mass market, it is a new concept to combine big data and daily life events as an inspiration. 2. For narrative jewellery embedded with people’s own life track meaning, it has not been widely accepted by the public. Therefore, the operation mode still needs to be improved. 3. Personalised customer service is not a rapid marketing business model, which needs certain cost in time. 4. Castable resin is not an universally available material in 3D print field world-widely; therefore it might cause difficulty during the production process.
