Welcome to another trip through the Sektor 7 workshop. The Voronoi Christmas Ornament 3D Print is today's stop, and we are looking at the idea, the design choices, and the details that bring the whole thing together.
A voronoi christmas ornament 3d print is what you get when you take the organic cell patterns found in nature and turn them into something you can hang on a branch. The idea behind this one is restraint: instead of a dense, carved-looking bauble, the structure stays open and airy, so light passes through the gaps and the ornament reads as modern rather than ornate. It still feels like Christmas, just a quieter version of it.
What the voronoi christmas ornament 3d print looks like
Printed, the piece shows an irregular web of connected struts rather than a repeating grid, which is the nature of voronoi geometry. No two cells are identical, so the ornament has a handmade quality even though it comes straight off the plate. The surface is smooth by design, which matters because it means the filament you choose does most of the visual work here. A matte black filament gives it a stealthy, almost architectural look against a tree full of glossy baubles. Silk filament pushes it the other way, catching light along every strut and giving it a festive shine instead.
Two sizes, one download
Both sizes come in the same file, and they’re meant to be used together rather than as alternatives. Mixing the smaller and larger ornament across a tree gives a sense of scale and rhythm that a single repeated size can’t manage on its own. If you’re decorating a full tree, printing a batch of both sizes and distributing them unevenly, more of one near the bottom, fewer of the other higher up, reads better than a uniform spread. For windows or decorative branches, the smaller size on its own is plenty.
How it prints
This is an FDM-friendly design, which is part of the point. The open voronoi structure keeps the ornament light, so it hangs without stressing whatever loop or hook you use. A ribbon-ready loop is built into the model itself, so there’s no separate part to attach or glue after printing. Because the structure is made of thin, crossing struts rather than solid shapes, bridging and overhangs are part of the geometry, which is why support is something to plan for rather than skip. Picking a filament that holds fine detail well pays off here, since the struts are the entire visual language of the piece. Matte filament hides small print artifacts nicely. Silk filament shows them more, but it also shows off the geometry more, so there’s a real tradeoff to decide on before you start the print.
Where it fits in a Christmas setup
This ornament sits well wherever you want something that reads as decoration without being loud about it. On a tree, it pairs with simpler, more traditional ornaments without clashing, since the open structure keeps it visually light. Hung in a window, it catches daylight rather differently than it catches artificial light at night, which is worth trying if you’ve got the filament for it. It also works on a decorative branch arrangement away from a tree entirely, since the ribbon loop doesn’t require a specific kind of hook or hanger.
It belongs in the Christmas Collection alongside the studio’s other seasonal pieces, and if you’re printing a few ornaments from that collection for one tree, this is a good one to anchor the set with, since its open structure gives your eye somewhere to rest between busier designs. Print a handful in one filament for consistency, or mix matte and silk across the two sizes if you want more variation. Either way, the geometry does the heavy lifting, and the filament choice is really the only decision left to make.
Thanks for following along. Whether the Voronoi Christmas Ornament 3D Print ends up on a desk, shelf, wall, table, or somewhere we never expected, we would love to see what you make with it.

Recommended Print Settings
The settings and the filament we used for our own print of this model, and the combination that gave us the best result. A recommendation, not a requirement.
- Filament
- Bambulab PLA Matte black
- Infill
- 8% Gyroid or Grid
- Layer Height
- 0.2mm
- Walls
- 2
- Nozzle Size
- 0.4mm
- Support Structure
- needed
- Brim
- None needed, but when you have adhesion problems then activate the brim
- Skirt Loops
- 1
Fuzzy Skin optional
A slicer setting that adds tiny random jitter to the outer walls, so the surface feels textured instead of smooth. It hides layer lines and seams and adds grip. Point distance sets how far apart the jitter points sit along the wall (smaller means finer), thickness sets how far each one moves (higher means rougher).
- Applies To
- Contour
- Point Distance
- 0.30 mm
- Thickness
- 0.10 mm
Not required — we used it on our own print. The 3MF project file already has it set up.
