THE DARK SIDE BY THE M FAMILY

A collection of 3D printed household objects

The M Family is a French brand launched by Michael Malapert that creates artistic 3D printed objects. Most recently, the brand debuted the Dark Side collection.

The Dark Side revisits everyday objects, transforming vases, bowls and plates into sparse geometric forms. Mimicking the graphics of 3D modeling software, each 3D printed piece is reduced to its pure skeleton – a fragile outline that is expressive yet implicit. A marriage of art, technology and design, the collection proves 3D printing’s ability to push objects beyond the realm of the familiar.
