METALLY (2025) has been selected for the Tokyo Type Directors Club Annual Award 2026 @tokyotdc as Excellent Work for the Experimental Work Category.
This marks an important milestone for the development of 3D printed books and re-emphasises their lineage in the printing press and tradition of graphic design. Beyond destabilising the ontology of print, 3D printed books interrogate the production processes and workflows of book-objects by retracing historical practices while speculating on their future.
METALLY is a culmination of various experimental processes developed over years from previous titles (and from countless failures), such as flexible 3D printed substrates, purpose-built typeface and methodology for 3D printing (termed path-trapping), Multi-material mechanical interlocking for printing images (termed clotting) and other methods documented at @hyper.press.

Every piece is littered with randomly generated artefacts produced by the printer's pathing system, exploring accidental mark-making through the machines's vibration, belt patten ringing, and pathing mechanics. Through randomised start and end points per layer, each book-object is printed with a unique path. These artefacts are often perceived as printing flaws—here they are part of @hyper.press machine's unique signature through specific software settings and hardware intricacies.
The logomark on the cover is made using a "x-for-z" method, where relief marks are printed through movements on the x-axis rather than z-axis—a maneuver only possible through 3D printing the book-object upright instead of cover-flat on surface.
These exercises serves as a proof-of-concept for a process for 3D printing a book all at once. Each piece is produced from the same filament spool that was used to produce previous @hyper.press titles. Available @labour_block . While spool lasts.

DOUBLE SLIT EXPERIMENTS
𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 feature a double-slit joint system across its constellation of spines. Conceived by polymath Thomas Young, the double-slit experiments from 1801 have since been explored in many branches in physics, including quantum mechanics. Initially designed to demonstrate the dual wave–particle behaviour of light and matter, the experiment later gave rise to profound scientific and philosophical questions concerning measurement, observation, and consciousness itself. The primary consequences of the findings from these experiments stem from how classical particles can exhibit behaviours of waves only under unobserved circumstances, either mechanically or by human interactions.
𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴’s binding mechanism draws simultaneously on the technical logic of the double-slit apparatus and on the conceptual perplexities it exposes—the dualities that emerge from interactions. Each spread of 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 is 3D-printed with a pair of slits at the centrefold and extended tabs along the fore edges. These tabs are designed to be threaded through the centrefold slits of adjacent spreads and heat-bound together, forming a continuous, branching system of spreads.

𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 feature a double-slit joint system across its constellation of spines. Conceived by polymath Thomas Young, the double-slit experiments from 1801 have since been explored in many branches in physics, including quantum mechanics. Initially designed to demonstrate the dual wave–particle behaviour of light and matter, the experiment later gave rise to profound scientific and philosophical questions concerning measurement, observation, and consciousness itself. The primary consequences of the findings from these experiments stem from how classical particles can exhibit behaviours of waves only under unobserved circumstances, either mechanically or by human interactions.
𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴’s binding mechanism draws simultaneously on the technical logic of the double-slit apparatus and on the conceptual perplexities it exposes—the dualities that emerge from interactions. Each spread of 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 is 3D-printed with a pair of slits at the centrefold and extended tabs along the fore edges. These tabs are designed to be threaded through the centrefold slits of adjacent spreads and heat-bound together, forming a continuous, branching system of spreads.

MANY FOLDS OF THE SURFACE
The cover of 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘺-𝘍𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 features an experimental technique developed at @hyper.press for spot iridescent 3D printed graphics on 3D printed books. Building on a diffraction-grating transfer technique developed within the larger 3D printing community, a multi-material workflow was devised to enable selective grating transfer across specific regions of the print surface.
A diffraction grating operates through micro-periodic patterns etched onto material—like a surface folded over and over—causing incoming light waves to diffract and interfere with one another, thereby generating a spectrum. By 3D printing directly over a diffraction grating surface, the microstructures can be imprinted onto the bed-facing surface of the 3D printed object, which transfers the optical phenomenon to the print.
Conceptually it is important to think about this process as transfer of phenomenon, not ink. Conventional printing involves the transfer of ink onto a substrate, whereas this is an imprinting of pronounced, three-dimensional structures from surface to surface, resulting in transfer of optical phenomenon.
With progress from FFF 3D printing technologies, 3D printers might benefit from development in deposition resolution to be able to fabricate the diffraction microstrucutures natively in the future.
