Will I discover a solution while failing spectacularly along the way?
Damn right I will!

Errare discare. To err is to learn.
That’s why Failure is Always an Option here. I solve everyday problems with rapid, functional industrial design - no pretense, no overdesigned minimalism that ignores real life. Just useful stuff, made the messy way.

I got tired of stuff in my life that “almost” worked.
You know - the sleek Nespresso machine that only fits espresso cups,
knives messily stored in a drawer, supermarket plastic bags that don’t open,
and the other inconveniences that quietly annoys you every single day.
So I stopped complaining and started making.
In my studio, armed with a stubborn refusal to find solutions
and not hide the mess, I began prototyping solutions in the only way i know how.
Brute force trial and error and learning along the way.
Because failure isn’t the opposite of success.
It’s the raw material.
Every broken print, every dumb idea that died in testing - it’s all useful, ugly, glorious data.
Errare discare.
To err is to learn.
That’s why Failure is Always an Option here. Not as a cute slogan, but as the actual process.
I try to solve everyday annoyances with rapid, functional design — no designer pretense, no overdesigned minimalism that ignores real life.
Just functional stuff, made the messy way.
Welcome to FailPrint. Come for the fixes. Stay for the fails.

We love the Nespresso Essenza Mini and it’s minimalist form factor. It’s sleek, it’s sexy, it takes up very little space. It doesn’t however allow for taller cups for those of us who start off our day with a double.
So here at FailPrint, we did something about it.
Introducing The ELEVATE Dock, an add-on for the Nespresso Essenza Mini that lifts it up to accommodate larger cups up to 15cm and an easily removable drip-tray for those drops of caffeine gold that slips past your cup.
Paired together with detachable (and magnetically secured) pod storage docks that are easy to remove, simple to refill, and snaps right back to the dock itself, you’ll always have coffee on standby. Holds up to 20 pods.
Printed in Singapore. Prototyped, broken, redesigned — the messy way.
Limited first run of 20. We print, package and ship it to you.
Upgrade your Nespresso Essenzo Mini with The ELEVATE Dock, the add-on for coffee lovers who start their day requiring more than one shot of coffee.
Allowing for cups up to 15cm tall and complimenting the sleek, minimalistic look of your machine, this STL pack also includes the detachable (and magnetically secured) pod storage docks. They’re easy to remove, simple to refill and snaps right back to the dock. Oh, and you can max it out to store 40 pods so you’ll always have pods on standby.
Get the full STL file and print your own raised dock with built-in magnetic pod storage. Tall cups finally fit without drama. Pods right exactly where you want them — no more morning scavenger hunts.
Designed and iterated in Singapore. Lots of broken prototypes, but we’re thrilled at how the final product came out.
Instant download. Print it yourself on any 3D printer.
