We ordered handmade soaps to visually reflect 12 digital visualization designs in our previous work. The soap colors precisely matched the designs while the shapes varied. Our expectations of the 12 designs did not match the soap maker’s evaluations. Their comments were noted for picking designs suitable for soap making in the future. This can be helpful for further explorations of other physical materials for visualization, especially in every objects.
