Sora

Experience the delicate balance of air and form with Sora, a sculptural vase that redefines modern minimalism. Featuring a graceful, teardrop silhouette with elegant vertical cutouts, this piece allows light to flow through its core, creating a sense of weightlessness and sophisticated charm.

Design & Concept: I designed Sora—which means "sky" in Japanese—to evoke a feeling of openness and clarity. The vase is composed of soft, leaf-like segments that curve upward to meet at a refined rim, leaving slender, symmetrical gaps that showcase the interior. This architectural design is perfect for displaying a single dried flower or a delicate branch, as the openings provide a unique view of the stems within. Whether printed with a smooth matte finish or a subtle texture, Sora stands as a timeless piece of digital craftsmanship for any contemporary home.

Key Features:

Graceful Teardrop Form: A smooth, organic shape that tapers beautifully towards the neck. Slender Vertical Cutouts: Symmetrical openings that add transparency and a modern sculptural flair. Minimalist Centerpiece: A quiet yet powerful design that works perfectly on desks, mantels, or bedside tables. Sophisticated Shadow Play: The unique geometry creates a dynamic interplay of light both inside and outside the vessel.

Hardware Required: None. This is a single, fully 3D printed sculptural model.

(Note: This design is intended for dried flowers or decorative use. It is not watertight due to the vertical cutouts).

Printing Recommendations: Material: Matte White PLA is highly recommended to achieve the pure, "ceramic" look shown in the photos. Layer Height: 0.16mm or 0.20mm is ideal for capturing the smooth, sweeping curves of the segments. Infill: 10–15% Gyroid. Walls: 3 Walls to ensure the vertical segments remain strong and well-defined.
