Here's customizes artwork the buyer helps the artist create from the comforts of their home. The [Fluid Earth bowl](http://www.fluidforms.at/shop/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=36&products_id=80) is based on the topography of any location you choose. The contour lines define the shape of the bowl, so you can have a 3D version of your favourite location sitting on your counter top.

Since it's all done online, you can change the topography if you find its too flat or too extreme. The beechwood beauties are available from [Fluid Forms](http://www.fluidforms.at/shop/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=36&products_id=80).
