Dental clinic, Nitra

Brief
A logo for a dental clinic in Nitra and a three-dimensional version for the interior: a logo panel on the clinic wall and an emblem on the front of the reception desk.
What we designed
The clinic logo: an emblem of a crowned tooth in a laurel wreath and the mklinik lettering. Then a 3D version with depth, split into separate letters and parts for printing.
What we made
White plastic 3D letters and emblem bonded to a frosted glass panel, which we mounted on the clinic wall on stand-off fixings, and silver emblems on the backlit glass front of the reception desk. We printed test letters before production.
Result
A company logo on the wall and the reception desk: patients see it as soon as they arrive and the same emblem repeats on the reception desk, so the whole space reads as one brand. One studio handled design, production and installation.

Relief detail on the wood finish
Brief
A logo for a wine shop and a relief version for the front of the sales counter, where a flat sticker would disappear into the wood grain.
What we designed
The logo: a grape bunch with a leaf, the VÍNO DECO lettering, two rules and the year 2019. Then a relief version in which every element is a separate part with depth.
What we made
A 3D logo in black relief parts: the graphic and 3D lettering fitted to the sales counter with a mounting template so the letters and rules sit exactly in line.
Result
The relief casts a shadow, so the logo reads from the front and the side and does not get lost in the wood grain. Customers see it at every purchase. One studio handled design, production and installation.
Events, client undisclosed

Light-Up Statues for an Event

A 3D printed statue as event decoration: a sculpture by day, a light object at night

The same statue in the evening with LED lighting
Brief
Decorative statues for an event that read as sculptures by day and as light objects in the evening. The client prefers not to be named.
What we designed
A 3D model of a female torso on a base, designed so light from LEDs inside passes through the wall of the statue.
What we made
Large-format 3D printing in sections: we joined, filled and finished the parts so the seams do not show, and fitted LED lighting inside.
Result
One object covered both decoration and lighting: a white sculpture by day and, after dark, a light that sets the mood of the event.
Custom technical part, client undisclosed

Checking the part's dimensions before final assembly
Brief
A drone accessory needed a firm mount on a carbon arm. A ready-made part cannot be bought, because every drone is different.
What we designed
A 3D model of a clamp to the exact diameter of the carbon tube, with screw holes, and an accessory mount for the same arm.
What we made
We printed the parts in a material that copes with vibration and checked the dimensions on the arm before final assembly.
Result
The accessory sits firmly on the carbon arm. The same process works for any technical part you cannot buy: measure, model, print and check the dimensions.

Smooth part walls at a 0.15 mm layer height
Brief
A customer sent an existing model of an adapter for Zwift Play controllers on a Stages bike and needed it made.
What we designed
We did not design the model. We checked it and set up the print, because the author listed PETG but no infill.
What we made
A left and a right part in PETG with 100% infill and a 0.15 mm layer height, for high strength and smooth walls.

Brief
Logo and visual identity for a burger restaurant in the centre of Nitra, the first in the city to deliver burgers to the door, plus the logo in the restaurant interior.
What we designed
The Urger Burger wordmark in a rounded sans serif, a single-line burger icon, the tagline "no compromises, guaranteed quality", a charcoal palette with white and a muted gold accent, and a textured pattern of food line icons for menu, web, delivery and social media.
What we made
The logo in the interior: a sign with 3D lettering and the burger icon above the bar and a large 3D burger icon on the dining room wall, including installation.
Result
One identity across the website, menu, delivery packaging, social media and the restaurant walls. The burger icon works on its own, without the lettering.

FAQ

How much does a 3D wall logo cost?

We price every logo separately, because it depends on size, number of parts, finish, backlighting and installation. Send the logo or a sketch and the wall size and you get a non-binding price and lead time within 48 hours.

Do you design the logo too, or do I need one already?

Both. For MKLINIK, Víno Deco and Urger Burger we designed the logo from scratch, then prepared its 3D version, produced it and installed it. If you already have a logo, a vector file (SVG, PDF, AI) or a good-quality image is enough.

What is a 3D logo made of, and does it last outdoors?

We 3D print logos in plastic. Indoors usually PLA or PETG, outdoors ASA, which withstands sun and weather. We choose colour and finish (matte, smooth, lacquered) for the setting.

Can a 3D logo or lettering be backlit?

Yes. We can build LED lighting into the object itself, as with the light-up statues for an event that read as sculptures by day and light objects at night. For a logo we light it from behind or inside, depending on where it is mounted.

How is a 3D logo fixed, and do you install it on site?

Yes, we install on site. For MKLINIK we bonded the 3D letters to a frosted glass panel and mounted it on the wall on stand-off fixings. For Víno Deco we fitted the parts to the sales counter using a mounting template so the letters sit exactly in line.

How large can a 3D logo or statue be?

We print large objects in sections, then join, fill and finish them so the seams do not show. That is how the event statues were made. We propose the exact size and split into parts in the quote.

How long does a 3D wall logo take?

It depends on whether we design the logo from scratch and on its size. The quote, sent within 48 hours, gives the exact production and installation dates. If you have a fixed opening or event date, include it in your request.

Do you make decorations for events?

Yes. For an undisclosed client we made light-up female torso statues as event decoration. We also make 3D lettering, logos for stands and other custom objects.

Can I see work samples before ordering?

Yes. Case studies are on this page. We can show physical samples when we meet in Nitra, by arrangement.

Will you publish my project as a reference?

Only with your consent. Projects under NDA are never published.
