With the emergence of the relevant technology, things like 3D-printed vases are a reality. In an age, where designers are utilizing the same technique to create breathtaking, form-defining silhouettes, thinking outside of the box and working with what you've got is essential.

Doogdesign's 3D-printed vases are a definite example of this. The collection is somewhat of a spontaneous venture for the Osaka-based studio. Founder Kazuya Koike did not have a high-end printer to produce the object and instead utilized the low-budget one in the Doogdesign office. He accepted privation as a component of design and therefore, was able to produce the [Unfinished 3D-printed vase](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/souffl-lamp) that takes on the silhouette of an upside down funnel. Each vessel has a small opening that makes it possible for consumers to [keep their vegetation hydrated](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lotus-effect-vase).
