Experience

  • Runway Masks — Lukas Spilka / Werenext (Other experience) Lukas Spilka / Werenext · Freelance Aug 2025 – Present 6 mos Prague, Prague, Czechia Sculptural runway masks (jewellery objects): CAD → 3D print → finishing.

    Engineered fit, weight balance and durability for stage performance.

    Organic–technical aesthetic aligned with collection; fast iteration cycles.
  • Collaborator — PrusaLab (3D Printing R&D) Prusa Research · Freelance Aug 2025 – Present 6 mos Prague, Prague, Czechia Invited by PrusaLab to design a jewellery piece for them; commissioned collaboration.

    Designed and produced a sterling silver pendant plus a custom design/collector box.

    Full pipeline: concept → Rhino CAD (incl. SubD) → SLA/FDM prototyping at PrusaLab → casting & finishing; approval KeyShot renders.

    Printability & DFM: wall-thickness vs. strength tuning, orientation/support strategy, tolerance notes.

    Handoff from CAD to assembly; shared guidelines to reduce print failures and polishing time.

    Recent project; collaboration continues with further joint work planned in 2026.
  • Instructor — Rhino Jewellery (12-lesson course) LABA - SKVOT · Freelance Feb 2025 – Present 1 yrs Prague, Prague, Czechia Designed & taught a 12-lesson beginner course “3D Jewellery Modeling in Rhinoceros 8.” Live online + final in-person print session.

    Curriculum: Rhino 8 fundamentals → curves/surfaces (Loft/Sweep/Extrude) → NURBS tools (Rebuild/Blend/NetworkSrf) → solids (Booleans, Shell, Fillet).
