Pendant lamps for a restaurant interior in Cascais.

take-two designed and built a set of four pendant lamps for Alegria Vadia, a restaurant in Cascais, Portugal. Each lamp was modelled in CAD, 3D-printed in PLA, then sanded and painted by hand before installation. The commission is one of the studio's occasional design projects. take-two is a 3D scanning, engineering, and printing studio whose main work is custom replacement parts: marine fittings, home hardware, and parts for classic cars and motorcycles that are broken, discontinued, or impossible to source. These lamps came out of that same process. CAD modelling, material selection, a review before anything is printed, then hand finishing. To commission a one-off piece or replace a part, send a photo on WhatsApp (+351 967 735 631) or email contact@take-two.co. The studio serves Cascais, Estoril, Sintra, and Lisbon, with on-site 3D scanning available.
