CNC machined aluminium

"It was an inspried move to machine laptops from billets of aluminium as opposed to multi-part plastic mouldings.
The process has been paused after the second cut, with the signature rounded corners and the negative space for the hinge fixing. The rawness of the aluminium has an elemental tactility and unrefined beauty."
- Edward & Jay
Part of ‘In The Making’ exhibition - more than twenty objects during the manufacturing stage of their construction...curated by Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, the design duo who are perhaps best known for designing the 2012 London Olympic torch.
The pair commented on the exhibition “‘We have always been fascinated by the making process as it is an integral part of our work. We have curated an exhibition that will provide a platform to capture and reveal a frozen moment in the manufacturing process and unveils an everyday object in its unfinished state. Often the object is as beautiful, if not more so, than the finished product!”
