For the 13th edition of Designer’s Days, a French design festival in Paris, Le Lab by Legrand reached out to Victoria Wilmotte to imagine the future of its products. The theme of this year’s edition is “Et demain…”. Under these two words, artists and designers must create objects of that evolve around the notion of progress, innovation and everyday life.
Victoria Wilmotte twisted Legrand industrial product range and redesign, at the same time, the whole showroom. The french artist delivers her sharp vision of aesthetism claiming that “Demain…” (“Tomorrow”) stands for physical products brought to life through a digital 3D rendering and 3D printing. A collection inspired by industrial design, with vivid colors from Modigliani.
Victoria Wilmotte and Legrand teamed up with Dassault Systèmes to display the whole experience and to bring a 3D printer in the showroom. Switch'On Tomorrow, a dedicated 3DExperience has been created with 3dvia and the 3D printed switches were exhibited on the wall, produced by Sculpteo.
You can access online the 3DExperience here, with a gamepad you will interact with the complete collection in 3D.
A 3DPrinter was also producing live the parts in front of the public to explain the additive manufacturing concepts : That's V+R.
3DPrinting is a good way to introduce new products, people could see, experience and touch...in 3D !
