Marbles

We were tasked with crafting an NFT collection of 50 3D digital marbles

Marbles is an innovative NFT (Non-Fungible Token) project that seeks to bring back memories of childhood, where collecting marbles was a fun pastime. The concept of the project was to discover the most valuable and sought-after marbles, some of which have been known to reach prices of over $500,000, and recreate them in the digital space using cutting-edge technology. The development of the project was an exciting challenge for us as designers, as we had to analyze the build and make of the top 50 real-life marbles and model them in 3D with precision and accuracy.

We paid close attention to the details, materials, and texture of each marble, ensuring that we could replicate them as closely as possible in the digital space. In creating this NFT project, we had to consider every aspect of the user experience, from the design of the 3D assets and materials to the design and development of the auction site. Our team was heavily involved in the entire process, assisting with all matters of design, including creating the visual identity, designing the 3D models of the marbles, developing the auction site's user interface, and creating promotional materials.

Each of the 50 marbles created in this project is unique and exclusive, with a distinct date of birth, material description, and personal backstory. We brought these marbles to life in a way that combines the nostalgia of childhood memories with the cutting-edge technology of the digital world. This project is a testament to our team's dedication to creating innovative and visually stunning designs that push the boundaries of what is possible. Our goal was not only to create something beautiful but to bring a piece of nostalgia back to life while introducing it to a new generation in a unique and exciting way.
