BLOOM
BLOOM
Bloom, nature, reinterpreted in code.
The Bloom vase pays homage to the fleeting beauty of the botanical world, captured and eternalized through digital innovation: its design is inspired by a flower at the exact moment it's about to open. Its sculptural petals twist forcefully upward, creating a play of slits that reveal the heart of the object. Available in heights of 200 mm and 250 mm, it's perfect for shelves in the smaller size or ideal as a centerpiece in the larger, emphasizing the concept of "openness" for a vibrant and dynamic presence.
More than a simple container, Bloom is a domestic sculpture where the openings between the petals create dramatic shadows that change throughout the day, reflecting the natural light. The matte finishes of the Essence collection define its character: Carbon Black transforms the flower into a mysterious architectural shadow, Chalk White recalls the purity of real petals and the materiality of ceramic, while Stone Grey creates a modern contrast between a natural form and an industrial color.

Who are we?
Shape 3: Where Design Meets the Future
We are an Italian Digital Crafts workshop. At Forma 3, we don't just sell objects: we design and create every single piece you find in our shop in-house, combining the precision of 3D printing with hand-crafted attention to detail.
Our Vision
We believe in design that's not only beautiful to look at, but also intelligent to produce. Our aesthetic is inspired by essential, sculptural forms, designed to add character to your spaces with a unique, contemporary touch.
What sets us apart?
- Made in Italy: We follow the entire product lifecycle, from digital draft to final print, in our studio in Italy.
- Quality, not Quantity: Each item is individually inspected and finished. We don't follow mass production methods: each piece is treated as a unique work of art.
- Conscious Production: We use only PLA (plant-based bioplastic) . We produce only to order (on-demand) : this allows us to eliminate warehouse waste and respect the environment.
- Digital Precision: We leverage the most advanced technologies to create complex geometries and details that traditional manufacturing could not achieve.
Forma 3 is conscious design: shapes born to last, designed for you.
What is PLA?
What is PLA?
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a plant-based bioplastic obtained from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugar cane.
We chose it because it's an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastics: it's biodegradable, safe for the home environment, and allows for incredible detail definition. Each of our items is printed to order , eliminating unnecessary warehouse waste.
