Layer One is a 3D-printed starter kit designed to help beginners take their first step into 3D printing with confidence. Housed in a layered toolbox, each section reveals a new tool—progressively guiding users from simple prints to more complex ones, all without needing prior experience. The kit is more than just functional; it’s meant to remove the fear of the unknown and show that making things for yourself is possible, useful, and even enjoyable.At the heart of this project is a simple belief: everyone deserves the chance to be creative. The ability to design, make, and problem-solve shouldn’t feel locked behind technical knowledge or expensive equipment. Layer One offers a tangible starting point one that invites curiosity and gives people permission to begin.
“How might we make 3D printing feel approachable, useful, and exciting to people who have never tried it removing fear from the first step and replacing it with confidence and curiosity?”
