Bringing History to Life: 3D Printing the Temeraire Wetherspoons Logo in Saffron Walden
We had the unique opportunity to 3D print the iconic logo of The Temeraire, a beloved Wetherspoons pub in Saffron Walden. This project wasn’t just about creating a physical object—it was about capturing the spirit of a local landmark and blending it with cutting-edge innovation.
Why The Temeraire?
Named after J.M.W. Turner’s famous painting The Fighting Temeraire, the pub carries a deep sense of British history and tradition. Located in the charming town of Saffron Walden, The Temeraire stands as a community hub with a rich story behind its name.

The 3D Printing Process
We started by carefully designing a digital model of the original logo, ensuring every detail remained faithful to the original. Using high-resolution 3D printing technology, we brought the logo to life with precision and durability in mind. The process involved:
- Digital Modelling: Crafting an accurate 3D version of the logo using specialised software.
- Material Selection: Choosing a high-quality filament that complements the rustic charm of the pub’s aesthetic.
- Finishing Touches: Post-processing the print for a smooth, professional finish.
A Creative Vision from the Pub Manager
This project wouldn’t have come to life without the creative vision of The Temeraire’s pub manager. Inspired by the idea of adding a modern twist to the pub’s historical theme, the manager commissioned the 3D print and proudly displayed it on the wall. It’s now a standout feature that has quickly become a talking point among regulars and visitors alike.
Why This Project Matters
This project highlights the potential for combining tradition with technology. A 3D-printed logo not only serves as a stunning decorative piece but also symbolises innovation within a space rooted in history.
Final Thoughts
We’re proud to have contributed a modern twist to The Temeraire’s timeless charm. If you’re ever in Saffron Walden, be sure to stop by the pub and see the logo for yourself—it’s a true blend of history and innovation.
