Design-It Studio is a Laser and CNC engraving company that is able to creat works of art using cherished photographs. By using special 3D rendering software a flat image is now used in a specialized laser to create a subsurface engraved image. The
Design-It Studio is focused primarily on the memorabilia market with exposure to specialized art and design elements. The ability to render a 3D image inside a low cost Crystal blank results in a high value product.
Photograph jpg files which are a flat 2D file are rendered into a 3D file by machine specific software. This new 3D image in the case of a special laser device is engraved inside a polished and artistically designed crystal or Acrylic block. For the CNC wood machine the 2D image is used to create a vector type file that can be used to engrave both flat and raised patterns. Unlike the small gift shop style of ornament the equipment in the case of the laser can engrave an image that is 400mmx400mmx150mm in size. The CNC machine which has a work surface size of 900mmx1500mm and is equipped with a unique 5 axis rotary can used to manufacture large format images in flat stock, dimensional and round design.
The Design-It Studio will incorporate web and social media to promote its product and image.
