- Type in Motion by Mat Voyce: Playful monthly kinetic type loops where motion defines meaning. (Link: Mat Voyce)
- Heydar Aliyev Center 3D Model by Adrian Martinez: A 1:1000 scale model of Zaha Hadid's parametric curves optimized for FDM. (Link: Adrian Martinez)
- Solare Typeface by Nikolas Type: Five-year variable font project blending structural grotesque geometry with warm serif details. (Link: Nikolas Type)
- Lumina Installations by Found Studio: Floating metallic spheres in simulated spatial environments exploring light and gravity. (Link: Found Studio)
