Augarten X Mostlikely
Location: Vienna
Year: 2014
Design type: Product
Design team: Maik Perfahl / Wolfgang List
Design client: Porzellanmanufaktur Augarten
Augarten X Mostlikely is a cooperation between the 300 year old porcelain manufacturer Augarten and the design company Mostlikely. What sounds like a culture clash created a win-win situation for both companies. Viennese tradition meets up with high tech design. The basis for the collaboration are the paper lamp shades of Mostlikely. The Penguin and Owl are designed on the computer and the models for the casting molds are printed in 3D by Mostlikely. The porcelain manufacturer Augarten produces and distribute the hand painted figurines.
Boicut X Mostlikely
Location: Vienna
Year: 2013
Design type: Product
Design team: Maik Perfahl / Wolfgang List
Design partner: Boicut
Until this collaboration Mostlikely produced only lamp shades in a simple white design. For this project Mostlikely teamed up with the world famous artist Boicut. Boicut made exclusive colour designs for 10 of our lamp shade models. The product can be used as a lampshade, a poster or something else… You make it yourself !
At the international design fair Blickfang in Vienna the products by Boicut X Mostlikely were honoured with the Price for the Best Product Design.
Mostlikely Silver
Location: Vienna
Year: 2014
Design type: Product
Design team: Maik Perfahl / Wolfgang List
The silver pendants are miniatures of our iconic paper lamp shade designs. The small wireframe models are produced in Belgium by using a wax 3D printing and lost wax casting method. The molten silver is poured into the casting. Once the silver has cooled and solidified, the plaster mold is broken and the silver models are removed by hand. Finally, the pendant gets a gloss finish. The chain is made out of silver in Austria. The customers are invited to thread the chain through the wireframe model however they like – DIY.
Of Donkeys and Basilisks
Location: Vienna
Year: 2012
Design type: Audiovisual sculpture
Design team: Kurt Mühlbauer / Maik Perfahl / Mark Neuner / Robert Schwarz / Wolfgang List
Mostlikely participated in the Vienna Design Week 2012 with a reconstruction of the Viennese Basilisk, a legendary creature. It was composed of 360 complex and individual parts. Those consisted of a total of 3780 two dimensional paperforms. And these again were glued together on 22680 folds. Low tech prototyping – by applying this method in a manic manner we succeed to create something delirious.
Participants: Patrick Juttel, Iza Rogucka, Anna- Katharina Nickel, Mira Tesselaar, Julia Machan, Barbara Karner, Clio van Aerde, Linnéa Jänen and Peter Gála.
Mostlikely Animals
Location: Vienna
Year: 2012
Design type: Product
Design team: Maik Perfahl / Wolfgang List
The Mostlikely Animals are complex 3D computer models that get transformed into low tech paper models. In a first step a 3D computer model gets designed. Afterwards the 3d computer model gets transformed into a flat plan. This flat plan is printed out on heavy paper, using a standard oversized printer found in most architecture firms. The printout is turned over to the customer, and in the last step the customer cuts out, folds and glues the parts together. The finished product is a complex object at a low price. The final product can be used as mask, lampshade or something else. At the international fair Maison&Objet in Paris Mostlikely won the Prix Découvertes MAISON&OBJET 2012.
The Rockspeaker
Location: Vienna
Year: 2015
Design type: Product
Design team: Maik Perfahl / Wolfgang List
Design partner: Mo Sound
Press Kit The Rockspeaker
The Rockspeakers are 3D printed active and passive speakers. The Rockspeaker is one of the first products we are developing and producing with a 3d printer. We teamed up with Viennese speaker manufacturer Mo Sound, who is already well-known for its spherical ceramic speakers, to craft a high fidelity speaker with an edgy design.
With the 3d printer we are able to shape and control the inside, the outside and the density of the speaker to get the best sound possible. Starting with the spherical shape we added a bass reflex tube to reach lower frequencies and switched to the edgy design for easier handling while maintaining the sound characteristics of the sphere.
Now we can offer a high fidelity speaker system, designed and handcrafted in Vienna, at a competitive price! The speakers are available in black, white, opaque, yellow, purple, pink, red and green. The material used for the case is PLA, a biodegradable thermoplastic.
The Loop
Location: Kunsthaus Graz
Year: 2014
Design type: Workshop
Design team: Maik Perfahl / Wolfgang List
The Loop was a workshop held for the Institute of Contemporary Art of TU Graz at the Kunsthaus Graz. The 5 m long and 2,5 m tall paper scultpture was designed and built by 21 students of the TU Graz. The students designed the sculpture in one day and built the whole structure in 4 days under observation of the visitors of the Kunsthaus Graz. 330 various stones made out of paper and approximately 900 working hours formed this loop.
