Alana Florence - Laser cut robot

Kinetics & textile designer makes fascinating robots

Alana Florence explores how kinetic textiles can be part of an interactive environment. Her illustrative patterns and creature-like kinetic robots are full of character. Alana hopes to inspire empathy and to re-tell the way we experience architecture.

Laser cut robot wallpaper

For Alana’s Kinetic wallpaper we cut a series of robotic components from a pre-made acrylic veneer. Bespoke wallpaper art prints were applied to the acrylic where the laser cut through both materials at the same time. The key here was getting the balance of power correct so the laser would cut through without burning the wallpaper.

You can laser cut a vast amount of robotic and engineering parts with us: washers, shims, plates and brackets, Instrument Panels etc, and more. We can cut components ranging from very tiny to a massive 2400mm x 1200mm, so we’re able to suit most applications. See more on laser cutting acrylic.
