The project
Archicercle produced clear acrylic parts for a scale prototype of a large drone. Undertaken in collaboration with ICEYE Japan, the project contributed to a model intended to validate the structure and components before the drone was manufactured.
The studio’s contribution focused on producing the parts and laser engraving dimensions and technical labels. This information was incorporated directly into the components: as well as reproducing a shape, each part carried the relevant references for use in the prototype.
The set combines straight and curved outlines with technical inscriptions on transparent surfaces. Visible references include positional labels such as FRONT, REAR and RIGHT, alongside the engraved dimensions.
The collaboration resulted in a set of physical parts for the scale model. The work brings together bespoke component production and technical identification through engraving, as part of a prototyping stage ahead of drone manufacture.
