Description

Boost MeIf you like the concept, please BOOST this model — it really helps support further development 🙏

Museum of Us is a 3D-printed frame designed to turn a classic 10x15 photo into a tiny museum gallery.
The concept is simple: multiple frames on the wall, but only one printed photo slid inside, giving the illusion of several separate pictures.

 

To create your own photo layout easily, I built a free web tool:
👉 https://museum-of-us.vercel.app/
Upload your photos, generate the layout, print it, and slide it into the frame.

UPDATE : the layout generator is now fixed, try it again!!

Both 15x21 and 10x15 layout are avaliables.

🔄 Updated thanks to early feedback

This version has been refined based on feedback from early printers:

  • supports have been redesigned for easier removal,
  • a small integrated stand was added to allow the diorama to sit on a desk or shelf,
  • overall printability was improved,
  • and the outer frame was slightly widened for better rigidity and assembly comfort.
  • I also added a 

Thanks to everyone who shared their experience — it directly shaped this version.

❤️ A perfect personalized Valentine’s Day gift

Museum of Us was designed as a meaningful, personalized gift — especially for Valentine’s Day.
Instead of a single framed photo, it turns shared memories into a miniature museum of your relationship.

By combining multiple moments into one curated gallery, it becomes a unique object that feels:

  • personal
  • symbolic
  • and made to last

It’s an ideal gift if you want something handmade, thoughtful, and truly unique, rather than a generic photo frame.

🖼️ Glass slot for a real diorama effect

The black outer frame includes a 2 mm slot designed to insert a thin glass or acrylic sheet.
You can easily reuse the glass from a cheap photo frame, which greatly enhances the real diorama / museum showcase feel.
⚠️ Cut the supports carefully with a scalpel before inserting the glass to avoid stress or scratches.

The glass slit for 100x150 is 103x153mmx2.4mm, depending on your printer precision, I recommend at least a 0.4mm margin (go 102x152 it's fine). The length can be even longer as the slit is longer.
For 150x210, the slot is 153x213mmx2.4mm, same remarks.

👥 Miniature characters (optional)

The 15x10 diorama works very well with 1:50 scale miniature characters, which match the scene perfectly and reinforce the museum scale. For the 21x15 I suggest a 1:30 scale character.
I created 10 cute couples. I'll add more with diversity if you want, because love is for everybody, just ask!

I was asked for LGBT couples, couples with children and expecting couple, they are now included in the “Couples” print profile! Enjoy and let me know if you want one that isn't represented!!

✨ Design highlights

  • Modular design (frame + insert + decorative frames)
  • Optimized for FDM printing
  • Minimal supports
  • Single printed photo for multiple frames
  • Designed for customization and iteration
