An alias, an idea and a passion for plants
Ein Alias, eine Idee und die Leidenschaft für Design
Welcome to c4b2fire - 3D Design!
My name is c4b2fire (actually Oli ;) ) - an alias that has been with me since the early 2000s. Back then, as a passionate PC gamer, this name came from the idea of "cab to fire" - the taxi to purgatory. It was my playful way of saying: "I'm sending you to purgatory!" Even though my gaming days are long gone, I still feel a strong connection to this name and still use it today for a variety of creative projects.
I came across 3D printing by chance at the beginning of 2024, but with immediate enthusiasm. After intensive research, my first 3D printer followed in the summer of the same year. At first I mainly printed designs by other artists, but the desire to realize my own ideas quickly grew. The joy of designing and the personal connection to creating something with my own hands and my own design have fascinated me every day since then.
I was particularly excited that 3D printing does not contradict my belief in living as sustainably as possible. PLA, my material of choice, is biodegradable - another reason why I love 3D printing so much. In winter 2024, my passion became so great that I had already bought my second printer and was planning further ideas for my small printer fleet.
As a passionate plant lover - I am particularly fond of alocasias and monsteras - I first started to design small, practical helpers such as cups and saucers for young plants and rhizomes. This gave rise to the idea of designing and printing simple but elegant flower pots myself. My living room now almost resembles a jungle, and this passion is also reflected in my designs.
The focus of my shop is initially on simple and stylish flower pots and practical plant accessories. But it won't stop at plants - in the future I plan to continuously expand my range and include other exciting categories.
I originally started on Etsy at the end of 2022 and offered digital designs - canvas-sized images to download and print yourself. But the step to physical products with 3D printing was only logical and felt exactly right. I am very happy that a small idea has now become a small company with passion.
I would like to thank everyone who shares my passion, supports me and accompanies me. I hope that you are as enthusiastic about my designs as I am!
Willkommen bei c4b2fire.
Ich bin Oliver, alias c4b2fire – ein kreatives Alias, das mich seit den frühen 2000ern begleitet und heute für alles steht, was ich mit Leidenschaft gestalte. Über die Jahre ist daraus ein persönlicher Raum für Design, Ästhetik und kreative Experimente geworden.
Meine Arbeiten entstehen aus der Faszination für Formen, Kontraste und natürliche Inspirationen. Besonders Pflanzen, organische Strukturen und eine klare, reduzierte Bildsprache prägen meinen Stil. Daraus entstehen moderne Kunstdrucke und individuelle Poster-Designs, die Ruhe, Tiefe und Ausdruck verbinden.
Ein weiterer Teil meiner kreativen Reise liegt im experimentellen Arbeiten mit neuen Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten und Techniken. Diese Phase ist fester Bestandteil meiner Entwicklung und wird auch künftig wieder stärker sichtbar werden.
Mit c4b2fire verfolge ich ein klares Ziel:
zeitlose, durchdachte Designs zu schaffen, die nicht laut sein müssen, um Wirkung zu entfalten.
Ich freue mich, wenn eines meiner Motive seinen Platz bei dir findet –
und danke dir für dein Interesse und deine Unterstützung.
