The Layers Lab was built on the principle that good engineering and great design aren't mutually exclusive. Every product whether it's a personalised keychain or a structural prototype gets the same level of care and precision.
Founded by siblings from aerospace engineering, dentistry, and clinical drug development, we bring multi-disciplinary thinking to every brief. No matter how niche or technical your project is, we've seen something like it before.
BEng Aerospace Engineering
With a BEng in Aerospace Engineering and five years of hands-on technical work from wind tunnel testing at university aerodynamic labs to designing rear wings and diffusers for motorsport applications every consultation at The Layers Lab is backed by real engineering knowledge.
That means when you bring us a brief, you're not just talking to a printer operator. You're talking to someone who understands material properties, tolerances, stress analysis, and design for manufacture. Whether your part is decorative or functional, the engineering thinking behind it is the same.
I've worked on aerospace wing designs tested in real wind tunnels, orbital mechanics problems, carotid artery CAD models for medical research, and custom 3D printed consumer products all requiring the same obsessive attention to specification.
The Layers Lab is an extension of that mindset. Bring us any brief technical or creative and we'll treat it with the same rigour we'd apply to a structural prototype.
