The realization of Eikon Exe involved various mechanical technologies. These include water jet for glass and mirror, pantographing and varnishing for wood, waterjet cutting for stoneware, leathers, and zamak die-casting with dedicated surface treatments. The materials used include glossy and brushed metals, glasses, mirrors, natural woods, high-quality leathers, and marbled stonewares.
