Starting from a dense 3D scan of the original instrument, the main challenge was to reconstruct smooth, continuous surfaces that captured the subtle nuances of the handmade form. Using Rhinoceros 3D, I carefully rebuilt each surface, ensuring accuracy and fluid transitions across the model. Beyond the technical process, this project offered a rewarding insight into the craftsmanship behind musical instruments — blending traditional artistry with digital precision. https://www.trumdesign.com/work-flatiron/ergohuman-7x5b3 monthly 0.5 2025-09-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1483557376145-S5ZPI4E08UORM5WK5YGO/Laborda_Ergohuman.jpg Work - Ergohuman Chair Ergohuman Chair — 3D Modeling for Architectural Visualization This project was developed for Proyecto Digital Studio (Spain), who required a high-fidelity 3D replica of the Ergohuman office chair for integration into an architectural visualization scene. Working from reference photographs and basic dimensional data, I reconstructed the chair’s complex geometry using Sub-D and NURBS modeling in Rhinoceros 3D. The process focused on achieving precise proportions, continuous surfaces, and realistic manufacturability. Each transition, ergonomic contour, and mechanical component was carefully modeled to ensure both aesthetic accuracy and functional coherence. The final deliverables included a NURBS model with V-Ray materials applied, as well as a polygonal mesh with UV mapping optimized for 3ds Max rendering workflows. https://www.trumdesign.com/work-flatiron/rhinozine-mhd34 monthly 0.5 2025-09-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1707921903041-0U09VGF20KKWVBQRKZCJ/Rhinozine_01.png Work - Rhinozine Article - Rhinozine_01.png (Copy) Rhinozine Article — E-Kart Design Project As part of my teaching role at the Universidad de Palermo, I guided students through the development of an E-Kart concept, exploring every stage of the industrial design process — from research and ideation to prototyping and testing. The project encouraged a balance between creativity and technical precision, with students defining their own design language, experimenting with both digital and physical modeling techniques, and presenting fully realized concepts. Many participants chose Rhinoceros 3D as their main modeling tool, achieving an exceptional level of detail and presentation quality. Their outstanding results caught the attention of the McNeel team, leading to a collaboration and the publication of an article in Rhinozine, Rhino’s official digital magazine.

The final presentation, produced by the Viva Magazine team, was awarded a Bronze Medal at Malofiej 2008, one of the most prestigious international infographic competitions. The process began with a hand sketch by Jorge Portaz, guided by the creative direction of Hernán Cañellas. I carried out extensive research on skeletal structure and anatomical proportions to ensure scientific accuracy, while Hernán Cordero Funes collaborated on portions of the 3D modeling. The result was a detailed and realistic model that combined artistic precision with factual integrity — a key factor in the project’s success and recognition.

Collaborating with Genesis Concept and Design Studio, I was responsible for the 3D modeling of the organic skull and gear components used in the production of this limited-edition Xbox housing. The process began with an artistic 3D model and a series of concept illustrations, which required extensive remodeling to meet production standards. I performed a full retopology of the base mesh, reworked nearly 80% of the geometry, and refined wall thicknesses and small details to preserve the expressive intent of the design while ensuring technical feasibility. The final model was delivered as a SolidWorks part, fully prepared for assembly with the product’s other components. Software used: ZBrush, SolidWorks, Rhino with T-Splines, and Modo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1483543538471-PJ4BLBVCZMSY9YU62KSN/Skull_Reference_01.jpg Work - Gears of War Vault https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1483543851629-DAUO7ZLZBLDBES1E1BL3/Skull_Wip_43.jpg Work - Gears of War Vault https://www.trumdesign.com/work-flatiron/puma-k1-9xej9 monthly 0.5 2025-09-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1710332948407-C91F2YHRN2RI1JUVT7ZN/Laborda_Zapatilla_Puma.jpg Work - Puma K1 - Laborda_Zapatilla_Puma.jpg (Copy) Puma K1 - Footwear Design - Academic and Technical Exploration I was invited by two Argentinian state institutions — The University of Architecture, Design and Urbanization (FADU-UBA) and The National Institute of Industrial Technology (INTI) — to teach postgraduate courses on 2D and 3D footwear representation. For these courses, I developed this rendered shoe model, chosen for its ability to showcase both innovative design and advanced material technologies. The concept emphasizes the expressive potential of high-performance materials and their complex, hi-tech morphology, while integrating the familiar elements of contemporary sports footwear. The project also explored the full modeling capabilities of Rhinoceros 4, pushing the limits of precision and detail. This image was featured on the V-Ray for Rhino website during the plugin’s first release, and also highlighted by T-Splines (Sub-D Plugin for Rhino). In addition, I created a series of video tutorials for T-Splines in 2007 based on this model.

Each project required balancing aesthetic intent with engineering feasibility, making critical design and technical decisions to preserve the original creative vision while ensuring manufacturability. The process involved developing highly detailed surface geometry, fine-tuning proportions, and maintaining consistency with Mattel’s design language. Primary software tools included Rhinoceros 3D using NURBS and Sub-D modeling, along with the VSR Plugin (developed by ICEM Surf and Alias engineers). Modo and SolidWorks were also employed for specialized modeling and production tasks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1483627749981-WRVLTP185WFRW8YNFMPJ/Laborda_Hotwheels_01.jpg Work - Hot Wheels - Hot Wheels Power Rangers Megaforce (Copy) Hot Wheels Power Rangers Megaforce Black Ranger Snake Zord https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1483627745335-WQJ0ZKNECFCTU7VWE5KS/Laborda_Hotwheels_03.jpg Work - Hot Wheels https://www.trumdesign.com/work-flatiron/notes-dispenser-zgkj4 monthly 0.5 2025-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5398a144e4b0615b21ee2594/1485356450118-V311QDKWRNR4IYTM7HIE/Seventh+Sense+Golf.jpg Work - Post-it Dispenser - Scotch Note dispenser (Copy) Scotch Post-it Dispenser This project began with a series of concept sketches that needed to be transformed into precise 3D models and realistic renders for presentation to the final client, 3M. My role was to interpret the designer’s vision while refining every detail to ensure the product could smoothly transition from concept to production. Balancing aesthetic fidelity with manufacturability was key — every curve, joint, and surface was carefully modeled to preserve the design intent while meeting real-world constraints. The final 3D files served multiple purposes: they were used to produce rapid prototypes, provided a foundation for mold design, and even supported marketing visuals for the product’s Amazon listing.
