About me

Hi, my name is David Umemoto. 

I'm a visual artist with a strong obsession with architecture. My main body of work consists of concrete sculptures and functional art, but I also enjoy experimenting with paper and other materials.

I believe that art should be playful and accessible to everyone, so you'll find here a mix of DIY projects, collectible design and exclusive artworks:

DIY Paper Projects

Templates and instructions to make your own cut & fold paper models.

Included for each model:
-Cutting and folding instructions in PDF format
-Template files in PDF and DXF Vector file format

PDF files can be printed on letter size cardstock paper on your home printer. Then you can cut them with scissors and a precision knife.

DXF files can be used with digital fabrication tools such as paper cutting machines, laser cutters or CNC router.

Please note that these products are digital only. Upon purchase, you’ll receive a link to download the template files and instructions.

No physical product will be shipped

DIY Toy Brick Building Instructions

Building instructions to make your own toy brick models.

Included for each model:
-Step by step building instructions in PDF format
-Piece list (Bill of material)

Please note that these products are digital only. Upon purchase, you’ll receive a link to download the PDF files.

No physical product will be shipped and toy bricks are not included

Collectible Design

A collection of functional art including vases, planters, micro-storage units and wall tiles.
All concrete pieces are hand crafted by me in my Montreal  Studio in very small batches. Each edition is unique so there might be slight variations in colour and textures.
Metal tiles are sand casted by an artisanal foundry.

Sculptures

Mostly original concrete sculptures, all produced in unique or limited editions. There will be occasional metal, acrylic and 3D printed pieces.
