3D Dublin Map, Framed

Dublin as a raised 3D map. The streets around The Liffey are printed in relief, every block of buildings standing up off the tile, parks in green and water in pale blue, so the light catches the edges and each building throws its own shadow as the day moves.

There is no name or lettering on it, just the map, edge to edge: anyone who knows Dublin will find their way around it. A gift for someone who lives there, grew up there, studied there, or has a favourite trip to Dublin to remember.

How we make it

Printed in-house on our Bambu Lab 3D printers, in one piece, from three Bambu Lab matte PLA filaments: PLA Matte Ivory White (11100) for the streets, buildings and lettering, PLA Matte Grass Green (11500) for the parks and green spaces and PLA Matte Ice Blue (11601) for the rivers, canals and sea. Matte PLA has a soft, chalky finish with no shine, so the light and shadow across the buildings do the work. The finished tile is set into a black wooden A5 frame, where it sits under the frame's lip with no glass in front, so you see and feel the relief.

Each one is made to order in our UK studio and sent Tracked (UK delivery 2-3 working days once dispatched).
