Our unique process combines art, science and technology to produce state of the art puzzles lasercut from wood.
no two puzzles are alike
Every puzzle features a one-of-a-kind pattern of pieces that is computer generated. Our unique shapes are based on how patterns form in nature. They "grow" to fill your puzzle allowing us to make puzzles with any shape!
whimsical pieces
Personalize your puzzle with special pieces shaped like letters, numbers and figures. We can also engrave the back of your puzzle with a custom message.

Jigsaw Puzzles for the 21st Century
Each generative puzzle is a one-of-a-kind creation with unique art and pieces. Our goal was to fuse the artistry of traditional, hand-crafted jigsaw puzzles with the possibilities of new technologies. Custom software simulates crystal growth to create an organic interlocking pattern. Our laser cutter translates this into a unique set of plywood pieces.

amoeba
amoeba piece style
Our "amoeba" jigsaw cut style is an extra challenging variation on our dendrite system. Small cilia-esque protrusions create a repetitive pattern with higher piece density.

dendrite
dendrite piece style
Our original cut based on a simulation of dendritic solidification, a type of crystal growth that occurs in super cooled fluids. Amorphous brach-like forms grow to interlock the pieces using a computational technique called phase field modeling.

maze
maze piece style
A dense, maze-like cut pattern. The extreme intertwining and high piece count makes Maze our hardest cut style. The pieces are grown in a simulation of elastic rods. The edges grow, lengthening, until they collide, pushing each other into contorted shapes.
