One of the best thing about 3D printing is the creativity you see from people. 3D printing really can showcase peoples talent. It really encompasses science, technology, engineering, arts and math. Technology is art. Inspiring and motivating. There isn’t another craft quit like it. Highlighting the good things people are doing in this space and talent they have is important. This brings me to my first creative 3D designer post about DaveMakesStuff. You can find him on Instagram where he posts photos of his original designs. You can also check out his YouTube Channel
I think what drew me to Dave’s work was the geometric shapes and the repeating artistic patterns of his unique designs. His artwork reminds me of an exhibit at the MET (better than some there!) His style is organic geometric, similar to what you would find in nature. Perfectly imperfect. Unconventional, modern and beautiful.
Dave is generous to post his creations on Thingiverse for free. You can print a copy of his original 3D art. Take a look yourself! Below are some of my favorites, but I honestly struggled picking out just a few! Check out all his files on Thingiverse here Thingiverse.com/davemakesstuff/designs
