Digital Sparks,
Tangible Results
Stone Lotus atelier is a small creative production studio focused on thoughtful, tactile, highly finished 3D-printed work. Blending digital fabrication with an eye for design, material, and presentation, the atelier creates objects that are both practical and expressive — from custom keytags and coasters to miniature figures, display pieces, prototypes, and specialty printed goods. Guided by the idea of “Digital Sparks, Tangible Results,” Stone Lotus atelier brings together technical precision, careful workflow, and a strong aesthetic sensibility to turn digital concepts into physical pieces with character, polish, and purpose.
About the Founder
With a background in technical theatre and more than thirty years in the print industry, Bradley Hare brings together a rare combination of visual sensitivity, practical production knowledge, and systems-minded technical skill. His early training in theatre shaped a deep understanding of composition, atmosphere, timing, and craft, developed through work as a stage manager, lighting designer, set designer, technical director, and designer’s assistant. That foundation continues to inform his aesthetic sense: an ability to see how form, function, material, and presentation work together to create a finished piece with clarity and presence.
In the print world, Bradley has built a career around both hands-on production and thoughtful process design. He set up the first retail digital print service in Edmonton, Alberta, managed a print shop, operated large digital print engines, and created software to support print-shop operations. More recently, his work has expanded into 3D printing, workflow design, inventory systems, and business operations, where his technical precision and creative judgment meet. Whether developing a physical object, refining a production process, or building tools to make work more reliable, he approaches each project with the eye of a designer and the discipline of a technician.
