Wouldn´t be amazing to drop your old objects into a machine that would deliver you some ready-to-use printing materials? What are your top inspiration sources? Even metal could be part of this recycling flow. People should be able to recycle their old plastic objects and clothing into materials compatible with 3D printers. Recycling could be an important part of the 3D printing process. What should improve in the 3D printing world? I would love to collaborate creating small and limited pieces for brands and designers where I could mix jewelry, fashion and accessories in new and experimental ways. I was so happy with the results that I decided to put those pieces together in a cohesive and special collection. I was invited as a “beta tester” for a new ceramic 3D printing process, so I started creating more curved and organic shapes to see how the material would perform. Tell us about your ceramic project called “Frank Collection” Also, the idea of fabric and textile 3D printing is something I would love to see available somehow. That would open a whole new world of possibilities for amazing new objects. I am really excited to try glass and wood 3D printing. What kind of materials would you love to see available for 3D printing in the future? That allowed me to start creating my own pieces in 3D without the need of the traditional and expensive industrial process. I´ve been working with jewelry and watchmaking for more than 10 years, so I had access to an amazing array of pieces and their development processes. Your focus is now on jewelry and ceramic 3D projects, can you tell us about that? Nevertheless, the creation process is not simple (yet): people will still need the help of experts in 3D printing before moving forward with their ideas. I see it heading to a very personalized and customized world, where simple daily things can take much more complex and unusual forms. How do you see the future of 3D printing? And 3D printing is where I could finally mix my interests in such a way I would always learn and move forward. That, mixed with my interest with new technologies, took me slowly to digital arts and 3D. I always enjoyed sketching new objects and that moved me to study Fine Arts. Then my favorite task starts: to shape the initial ideas in 3D and to see the pieces taking a more final form. I like to work with so called “collections” – I see them as little small stories that help me draw the first sketches, and move on to the computer. What is your most habitual creative process? It depends on what kind of craft I would like to experiment at the moment. I basically try to learn and have fun with each project, so each one can be completely different from the other. My work is a mix of many styles and techniques. With over 10 years’ experience in the field of design and 3D multidisciplinary projects, Diego combines his work of the last nine years as Creative/Designer for the luxury watch and jewelry firm deLaCour with his role as Activities Manager for Brief Festival. A couple of weeks ago, I had the chance to interview Diego Gomez Garcia-Carpintero. Diego graduated in Fine Arts from Complutense University of Madrid and holds a Master’s Degree in organic 3D modeling.
