The life processes of a plant become a diagram in this design for a flower vase.

This prototype was created with Maya Alias software, slices exported to Autocad, and cut on a laser cutter. Specifically designed to be constructed of .08 layers of clear Lexan, the prototype is assembled quickly in a custom jig and glued with acrylic adhesive.
