Israel – Tel Aviv-born designer Noa Raviv has produced the Hard Copy collection for her graduation from Shenkar College of Engineering and Design, inspired by 3D printing.

Classical sculpture and its evolution was the starting point for the young designer. ‘Classical Greek sculpture once represented an ideal of beauty,’ explains Raviv. ‘It was copied and reproduced many times throughout history until it became an empty repetition of style and expression.’

It was this idea of replication and the effect it might have on the original object’s value that led Raviv to create corrupted digital images using 3D software. A mixture of the physical and virtual elements such as the software’s grids then helped inform the collection’s unique aesthetic.

Developing most of the textiles herself, Raviv worked with stiff, shape-retaining fabrics such as tulle and silk organza to create the collection’s complex and voluminous silhouettes. For the collection’s 3D elements, Raviv collaborated with 3D modelling company Stratasys, incorporating 3D-printed polymer.
