.MGX is thrilled to announce that the new Spirograph.MGX hat by Elvis Pompilio, appeared as part of the Braccialini fashion show during Milan Fashion Week in September. 

The Braccialini show occurs only once every 5 years and featured Mrs. Braccialini herself wearing the Spirograph.MGX.

It was a huge honor for both .MGX and also Elvis Pompilio who served as Art Director for the full event.

From the entire .MGX team, thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm.

We wish you a very joyous holiday season and much success for 2012.

Renowned New York Gallery owner Murray Moss has collaborated with .MGX and Materialise in the creation of the first ever exhibition at the Victoria & Albert (V&A) Museum to solely feature 3D printed pieces.

Entitled ‘Industrial Revolution 2.0: How the Material World will Newly Materialise’, this exhibition will form part of London Design Week and showcase spellbinding works by Stephen Jones, Patrick Jouin, Iris van Herpen, and many others.

The pieces will be displayed in prominent positions throughout the museum, encouraging visitors to discover the futuristic creations in the context of their historical counterparts. We invite you to visit and experience firsthand the magical possibilities of 3D printing.

For Brussels Design September 2011, .MGX is pleased to announce a new collaboration with Belgian hat designer Elvis Pompilio. The Spirograph.MGX marks the start of a long term collaboration in which Pompilio will design a series of hats and accessories via 3D printing.

Pompilio, who has already collaborated with Chanel, Dior, Valentino and Hugo Boss, includes celebrities such as Madonna, Harrison Ford and Sharon Stone among his clientele.

Over the years, he has been consistently praised for his work in the Belgian and international media and his creations are part of several permanent collections, including those at the Musée Grévin and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris.

From August 24 until January 22, the Damned.MGX chandelier by Luc Merx and the Volume.MGX table lamp by Dror will be on display at the Design Museum in London as part of the ‘This is Design’ exhibition.

This exhibition will examine the impact of design on the modern world, including the role of the digital revolution.

The .MGX pieces will be accompanied by a short video to highlight and explain the innovative 3D printing processes used to create them.

Introducing the Algue.MGX by Xavier Lust

As a follow-up to the successful Gamete.MGX lamp, .MGX by Materialise is thrilled to announce a second collaboration with one of Belgium’s foremost designers, Xavier Lust.

Presented at Euroluce in Milan in April, the Algue.MGX table lamp combines two state-of-the-art technologies: a LED light source and 3D stereolithography printing. And as with all .MGX designs, it also combines the best of traditional and contemporary craftsmanship: each piece is individually drawn and created by laser, and carefully finished by hand.

.MGX is thrilled to announce that the Bloom lamp designed by Patrick Jouin has won a 2011 Red Dot Award for outstanding product design. This marks the second prestigious award for this lamp – in 2010, the year of its launch, it also received a Good Design Award – and the third time that .MGX products have been acknowledged by Red Dot for their outstanding product design: in 2005, it was for the Lily.MGX by Janne Kyttanen; and then in 2006/2007, the Omi.MGX by Assa Ashuach received the coveted prize. 

Inspired by flower blossoms found in nature, the Bloom table lamp features a shade which collapses and expands to release or contain light. The shade is 3D printed as a single piece, including hinges that in one movement, transform the shade from a bud to a blossom. And with the complexity of its design, the Bloom lamp succeeds in pushing even further the boundaries of 3D technologies.

The Red Dot product design competition has existed since 1955 and honors international excellence. Competition winners receive the Red Dot award which is a globally recognized seal of quality.

.MGX is thrilled to announce that the One_Shot.MGX stool by Patrick Jouin now forms part of the permanent collection at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta.

The stool, now considered an icon of modern design, has been displayed at numerous museums internationally, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.

Manufactured in a single piece via 3D printing, the stool transforms via gravity and a simple twist, from a foldable state into a strong, elegant seat.
