Independent Technical Study · Fictional Product
An espresso machine, inside and out.
Product images, cutaway views and an interactive 3D study.
I built this study to show both sides of a product: the finish people see, and the structure underneath. Detailed product images, internal views and three 3D presentation states each tell a different part of that story.
Read the study ↓The starting point
The outside matters. So does what’s inside.
The aim was to make a fictional espresso machine feel considered as a product, while making its internal arrangement easier to understand. I started with original CAD / STEP geometry made for a simulated brief.
What I worked on
- Prepared the CAD / STEP model in Blender for detailed images and a separate web version.
- Worked on the brushed metal, control glass and lighting to bring out the finish.
- Created an internal view and a separated view of the main parts.
- Prepared a GLB with Exterior, Internal and Exploded states for the desktop demonstration.
The finished images
One machine, from every side.
Up close
A closer look at the finish.
I gave the brushed metal, dark control glass and brew assembly their own close views. Each shows a different part of the finish and construction.
Below the surface
Take a look underneath.
The separated view shows how the main parts relate to one another. The internal view keeps them in place while opening up the outer shell.

The rendered images and browser version are separate outputs. Lighting and materials can look different.
From a study to your project
What a project like this can include
- Eight approved product stills, including material and control-panel details
- Exploded and internal product views
- Web-ready GLB and browser presentation
- 27-second recording of the working browser demonstration
About this study
This is a fictional product study, not a client commission or a manufacturing guide.
Technical notes
The original desktop checks used Chrome 152 and covered rotation, zoom, reset, and the Exterior, Internal and Exploded states. The 27-second video below is a recording of that browser demonstration. Physical phone performance has not been verified.

Independent Technical Study using a fictional product and a simulated brief.
No real client, brand partnership, Shopify integration or manufacturing certification is represented.
The exterior, internal and exploded views are presentation states, not a manufacturing or service specification.
- Physical mobile-device performance is not established by this study.
- Offline CGI and browser rendering are separate outputs.
- No reliable universal FPS benchmark is claimed.
The interactive version
Try it yourself.
Turn the machine around, look inside, then separate the parts to see how they fit together.
- Rotate and zoom
- Look inside
- Separate the main parts
Desktop mouse or trackpad recommended. Performance on physical phones has not been verified.
Live lighting and materials differ from the rendered images.
