Build of the Week: L3peau

Features
By James Davenport published 29 February 2016

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

Not every powerful PC needs to be the size of a refrigerator. They don’t need flames painted on the side. Hyperbolic prefixes and suffixes (hog, boss, monster) aren’t an absolute necessity. Some PCs just need a puppy-for-scale photo, a modest spec list, and a hushed ‘heck yeah’ from its observers.

Peter Brand’s L3peau doesn’t have a puppy-for-scale photo, which is totally unacceptable, but it’s still a super compact, clean, functional build without one. As one of the best modders in the biz, Brand built L3peau with efficiency in mind. The pipes and integrated cooling loop are certainly staples of his work, but here they contribute to a stripped down future-industrial skeleton aesthetic. It looks like the heart to an autonomous mech, which could easily come off as excessive and showy if its design wasn't so clear and cohesive.

The L3peau isn’t actually that small, but the open air rollcage design gives the build airy, minimalist vibe and opens it up to easy cleaning and sturdy transport. That said, I’m not sure it could survive a tumble down a hill, even if it looks sturdy enough to survive.

For more photos of L3peau and other projects from Brand, check out his website and build log.

He's a truffle pig for indie horror and weird FPS games too, seeking out games that actively hurt to play. Otherwise he's wandering Austin, identifying mushrooms and doodling grackles.
