Hey there, fellow explorers and creators! I'm excited to share something I've been working on: ShadowHex, a modular system designed for anyone passionate about travel and the iconic landmarks that dot our world.

• Giza Pyramids
• Golden Gate Bridge
• Great Wall of China
• Machu Picchu
• Mont Saint Michel

The Inspiration Behind ShadowHex:

The concept of ShadowHex was born out of my passion for traveling and the wish to cherish those memories through something physical. It provides a means to showcase the landmarks that inspire us, right on our workstations or walls, without requiring a passport. ShadowHex is all about exchanging stories and connecting over shared experiences, whether you're printing them for yourself or as gifts for fellow travel enthusiasts.

Why You'll Love ShadowHex:

Effortless Printing: Designed with ease in mind, every piece of the ShadowHex system prints smoothly, with no support needed. It's all about getting from idea to display as seamlessly as possible.

Snap and Share: ShadowHex's beauty lies in its simplicity and ease of assembly. Just clip your pieces together, add your chosen plate, and you've got a display that's as unique as your travels.

Creative Freedom: At the core of ShadowHex are the modular Hex A, B, and C pieces, alongside the versatile Half Hex and Hex Plate. These elements invite you to mix, match, and even create your designs, turning your display into a personal gallery of global exploration.

Models:

Hex A, B, and C: The foundation of your ShadowHex display, ready to be combined in endless ways for your perfect setup.

Half Hex A: Adds depth to any desktop or shelf display, providing a sturdy base for vertical arrangements.

Hex Plate: This plate offers a blank canvas for those who wish to personalize their ShadowHex with custom designs or memories of their travels.

Clip & WallMount are essential for keeping your display secure, whether you're aiming for a compact desk setup or an expansive wall-mounted gallery.
