A hand-finished aluminum art piece on your desk

TUO is a 3D-printed metal spinning top that uses AI-driven generative design to create a modern take on an ancient toy. This innovative design balances form and function, optimizing the top's structure and material while maintaining an elegant and beautiful form. The result is a toy that is not only fun to play with but also a hand-finished aluminum art piece that looks great on any desk.

The TUO spinning top pays homage to the Sanxingdui Culture by incorporating elements of its design into its form. The spinning top's shape is reminiscent of the Bronze Tree of Sanxingdui, with its intricate and detailed branches that represent cosmic trees. The top's design is optimized for both performance and aesthetics, making it a great toy and a beautiful art piece.

Our Designer collaborates with artificial intelligence algorithms to generate and evaluate the organic-shaped spinning top. The design process makes the structure stronger and minimizes material waste.

I carefully selected the AI-generated results and adjusted the details to make the final spinning top perfect.

I collaborate with the biggest 3D printing factory in Asia to print your metal tops.
