Where Nature Breathes Through Structure

 

We walked through forests  listening, sketching, sensing. Our team studied animal behavior, ecological patterns, and organic formations found in bones. This step connects the emotional identity of each animal to the spatial rhythm of a forest.

LATTICE WILD is a sculptural collection that reimagines forest creatures through a futuristic lens where life forms are reborn from geometry, sustainability, and storytelling. Each piece is crafted using large-scale 3D printing with biodegradable PLA, recycled ocean plastic material, forming a delicate yet resilient honeycomb structure. Each sculpture was printed using robotic arms in layers , a process that took 3–10 days per animal, depending on size and complexity. Once printed, we smoothed surfaces by hand, sealed them with eco-friendly coating, and applied UV protection for outdoor installation durability.

These not only reduce carbon impact but allow us to sculpt large-scale pieces without relying on heavy industrial casting.

WHY THIS MATTERS

LATTICE WILD is not just a sculpture series. It’s a movement toward:
• Biophilic storytelling
• Circular design processes
• Art as environmental witness

We believe art should inspire awe, educate, and regenerate and this collection does all three.
