In Folded Memories, Estefania Ajcip builds her childhood memories in three dimensions: cardboard maquettes, carved foam, birch plywood and small LEDs. The frame stops closing the scene.

Grace Baldwin is building a monumental junk drawer filled with fake objects worn like real ones. The series grows a few objects a day, with an inventory partly crowdsourced from her audience.
A three-month project lands in a five-week calendar. The way through isn't hiring fast, it's cutting first: what you keep, what you delegate, and what coordination actually costs.

SLICE turns worn tennis balls into footwear without shredding them: 3D-printed guides convert the sphere into repeatable parts while keeping felt bonded to rubber.

Pentagram built De Bijloke a fluid identity and a simple generative tool its single in-house designer can operate without returning every motion job to the agency.
