Using digital from a design perspective
Many of MENTOSEN's jewelry are created by using 3D printers to output 3D models created by CAD, or by using CNC cutting. Modeling with CAD and outputting with a 3D printer is not always good, At MENTOSEN, one of our goals is to challenge designs that could not be done by hand, so we purposely use digital. What you can do with digital What can you do with digital? For example, the Shikaku ring rotates 360 degrees while maintaining a certain angle of a 2mm square cube.
