Mission

Create a one-off World Cup-inspired PC commission for professional footballer Florian Thauvin, combining a sculptural trophy display with Cooler Master hardware and a personal number 10 identity.

Mission report

World Cup — Florian Thauvin started with a panoramic black Cooler Master chassis and a trophy-led concept developed for the professional footballer. MP-Customized first stripped the enclosure back to its frame and mapped a dedicated display volume into the front glass section, leaving the rear zone available for the computer hardware. A full trophy reproduction was produced in 3D-printed form, test-fitted on a raised internal plinth and then refined through primer, surface correction and several finish stages. The figure and globe received a warm metallic-gold treatment, while layered green accents around the base reference the familiar trophy palette. Four adjustable spotlights in the roof direct green-gold light across the relief and make the sculpture readable through the smoked panoramic glass. The chassis trim was refinished in a matching muted gold, and a custom laser-worked side treatment adds THAUVIN and the player number 10 without hiding the display. Cooler Master France supported the commission with the chassis, MasterFan MF120 Halo cooling and an X Silent Edge Platinum 1100 power supply. The selected archive follows the project from donor enclosure and raw printed trophy through paint, laser work, assembly and the completed illuminated presentation. This private commission is not presented as an official FIFA collaboration.

01 · Briefing

The assignment

The brief called for a personal showcase build that connects Florian Thauvin and his football career without reducing the theme to printed graphics. The large trophy form had to become part of the enclosure architecture while the glass, cooling space and serviceable PC chamber remained usable.

02 · Execution

Built as one idea

MP-Customized reorganised a panoramic Cooler Master chassis into a trophy gallery at the front and a hardware chamber behind it. A full 3D-printed trophy was prepared and hand-finished in gold and green, illuminated by four adjustable spotlights and paired with a custom THAUVIN 10 glass-panel treatment.

03 · Outcome

Made to be seen

The completed 2026 commission combines gold outer trim, smoked panoramic glass, the illuminated trophy and personal number 10 graphics in one display-led Cooler Master build.

Mission and report text are drafted from the preserved project image and original MP-Customized metadata. Additional technical specifications, photography or press references can be added after verification.
