Sometimes updating one's home is a matter of getting creative instead of replacing items entirely; enter the 3-Pring Product series. It is a line of 3D printed modules that help remix existing ready-made objects such as clocks, chairs and containers into other practical creations.
For instance, a set of four chairs can be turned into a table with the addition of a cardboard surface and the use of four joints that secure the top (cardboard) to the base (chairs). The 3-Pring Product series is comprised of more specific designs such as a ring-like object that turns an alarm clock to a wall-mounted device.
The 3-Pring Product series was cleverly and creatively designed by Takt Project, a design studio based in Tokyo, Japan.
