Mint Lukus Vase
The Lukus vase is an exciting development in our continued investigation into the design languages of 3D printing. It is impossible to print the final shape of the Lukus vase. Instead, the Lukus begins as a simple shape with an algorithmic woven structure. After printing, we heat the form by hand to the point where it moves and flows like a piece of fabric. Then, it's quickly molded into its final shape before solidifying. The ruffled edges are a part of the moulding process, giving the Lukus vase a minimal organic feel we are proud of.
There might be small irregularities in the surfaces/patterns due to the nature of 3D printing. These are not defects but are a normal part of this unique manufacturing process. We hold our work to a high standard and inspect every product before shipping.
Ready To Ship
We make design objects that make it easier for you to be a consumer living by your principles.
It is imperative that we create a future where the simple act of owning a vase, a bowl, or a chair doesn't come with hidden costs from extraction, production, and exploitation.
Made for a world without waste.
Made with recycled palastic
We’ve extracted a lot of oil to make plastic that is both extremely durable and able to be used again and again. It's inexcusable to let it go to waste. The plastic that we don't recycle ends up in our environment and our food chain, wreaking havoc.
3D printed at our Montreal studio
The flexibility of 3D printing means we can reimagine the entire business model with sustainability as the foundation. Our products are made to order, which means there is no waste and we have freedom to experiment new designs and textures.
Zero-waste Circular Design
Our circular business model ensures the material used in our products never pollute the environment or end in a landfill. You can ship it back to us to reuse the material in new products. together we can work towards a world without waste.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes, all our vases are water tight. They can hold fresh and dry flowers.
-
The products are not painted, the colour is part of the material. Slight fading may occur after long period of exposure to direct sunlight.
-
It is rPLA, supplied by Reflow, is recycled from post-industrial food packaging waste sourced from the Benelux region.
PLA is a bioderived material made from fermented plant starch such as corn, cassava, and sugarcane. Although its source is technically renewable, the industrial agriculture it comes from has a heavy carbon footprint. This is why we use recycled PLA. It’s also somewhat misleadingly characterized as biodegradable. Although it can be broken down at the end of life, it does not naturally decompose at speed without industrial composting assistance. PLA is greener than traditional plastics, but its fate as waste, and the damage it can cause, is the same as any other plastic. PLA is a valuable material that should be kept in a circular loop for as long as possible.

You can wipe clean and wash with cool water and mild soap. Our products are not dishwasher safe, they are not meant to be exposed to extreme temperatures.
For products with intricate openigns we recommend using a bottle brush.
