Our 2026 coaster collaboration features illustrator and designer David Plunkert @davidplunkert , whose bold, concept-driven imagery connects wit, structure, and visual storytelling.
His work moves fluidly between abstraction and representation, transforming ideas into images that linger with meaning. Plunkert’s drawing reflects the essence of architectural creativity: the figure inhabits the very room he imagines, a reminder that design is a projection of self into livable space.
Plunkert thrives in the balance between experimentation and formula. At Dowbuilt, we strive for a similar balance as designers, builders, and artists work together to bring extraordinary structures to life.
This collaboration was made possible through shared effort. @hybrid3_studios translated Plunkert’s original sketches into printable form with care and precision, preserving the intent of the work while preparing it for production. @evolutionpress manufactured each coaster, bringing the design to life with an exceptional level of craft and attention.
Thank you to the artists and partners who contribute to our coaster collaboration year after year.
