Terms & Conditions
Art. 1 – Scope and Contract Partner
1.1 These General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter "AGB") apply to all business relationships between Sketch Studio Designs, Alex Ursachi, Bachmannweg 1A, 8046 Zürich (hereinafter "Seller") and its customers via the online shop.
1.2 By placing an order, the customer acknowledges these AGB as part of the contract. Any deviating conditions of the customer are not recognized unless expressly agreed to in writing by the Seller.
Art. 2 – Conclusion of Contract
2.1 The presentation of products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer, but an invitation to the customer to place an order.

Art. 3 – Specifics of 3D Printing and Materials
3.1 All products are manufactured using FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) technology. The customer acknowledges that 3D-printed objects possess a characteristic surface (visible layer lines and start/stop points). These are technical characteristics and do not constitute defects.
3.2 We utilize sustainable materials (primarily PLA). PLA is a thermoplastic and can deform at temperatures above 55°C. The products must be kept away from intense heat sources, dishwashers, and extreme sunlight behind glass.
