What is Wild Seed?
Wild Seed starts from a simple idea and a growing desire: to work closer to nature, and to explore how digital creation can merge with natural systems.
It is a space for experimentation where digital work doesn’t stay confined to the screen, but instead takes physical form and becomes something alive. Through the use of 3D printing and carefully created environments inspired by terrariums, Wild Seed looks at how we can bring digital creations into the real world and allow them to coexist with organic life.
At its core, Wild Seed is about bridging two worlds that often feel separate, the precision of digital design and the unpredictability of nature, and discovering what can grow in between.
Terrariums: the starting point.
They’ve always fascinated me — small, self-contained ecosystems where balance, humidity, light, and growth exist in harmony. A couple of years ago, I began experimenting with them, learning how to build and maintain these miniature worlds.
Most of my ideas are born from this process. Terrariums taught me how to observe natural systems closely, how small changes affect growth, and how life adapts within constraints. They became not just an inspiration, but a foundation — a way of thinking about space, form, and environment.
Wild Seed grows directly from this craft.
Living moss sits at the centre of this exploration.
It is one of the most suitable mediums for merging with 3D-printed forms: adaptable, resilient, and visually soft in contrast to rigid structures. Moss grows slowly, follows surfaces, and transforms objects over time, making it ideal for creating pieces that evolve rather than remain static.
At the same time, moss is ancient. It connects us to early forms of plant life and reminds us of a much older relationship between humans and nature. Working with it feels grounding — like collaborating with something that has existed far longer than us.
Through moss, these pieces are not just objects, but living syste
3D printing makes it possible.
My background and passion for 3D modelling and character creation naturally led me here. Designing digitally has always been a way for me to explore form, imagination, and storytelling — but bringing those creations into the physical world opens up entirely new possibilities.
Introducing a 3D printer into the process has allowed me to experiment with structure, texture, and function in ways that directly interact with living materials. It’s still a learning process, and I’m constantly exploring what works and what doesn’t, but that’s part of the excitement.
Wild Seed is as much about discovery as it is about creation — and 3D printing is the tool that allows these ideas to take shape and grow into something real.
