Ovni Bowl

Some pieces look like nothing else on your shelf, and this one starts with the name: Ovni, Spanish for UFO. Its parametric profile flares out wide at the rim then tapers to a small, sturdy base, exactly like a saucer coming in to land, and every inch of the exterior is wrapped in a raised chevron pattern that looks lifted straight off a spaceship hull. This is not a shape a person could carve by hand. Designed in Rhino3D with Grasshopper, the geometry lets that zigzag texture wrap continuously around the curved wall without a single seam breaking the pattern. Printed in PLA+, the ridges hold crisp definition and the finish takes on a soft gloss that makes the pattern pop. Set it on an entryway console for your keys and loose change, or let it sit empty on a shelf as a piece of sculptural decor in its own right. The wide bowl mouth makes it easy to drop things in without looking, while the tapered base keeps it steady. Printed to order in Australia in a colour that suits your space, from the bold purple shown to a cooler silver or matte black for something more understated. Ready in a day or two, and light enough to shift between rooms whenever the mood strikes.
