A method for developing a product is provided, wherein the method includes developing a three-dimensional product design, translating the three-dimensional product design into a two-dimensional product design, wherein the two-dimensional product design includes at least one product structure having at least two structure sections, obtaining a rigidly malleable material to create the at least one product structure, wherein the rigidly malleable material is obtained based on the two-dimensional product design, generating the at least one product structure by shaping the rigidly malleable material based on the two-dimensional product design such that the at least one product structure includes the at least two structure sections separated by at least one forming groove and at least one forming tab, the at least one forming tab having a forming tab height and a forming tab width and hand forming the product structure based on the at least one forming groove.
