SOFT STRUCTURE No.5

Unique piece

Material: Recycled bioplastic

Size: H: 3,4m x W: 3,0m x D: 1,6m

With inspiration from the shapes of nature, such as a human ear, lungs, a butterfly’s wing, melting ice, an orchid and many other flowers, the project examines the possibilities new 3D-printing technology offers to create a design language where complexity is no longer an obstacle, but a potential. 

The project explores the limits of what is possible to produce, in the area of tension between aesthetic complexity and practical posibility, and asks the question; ‘How many arches, folds and details can we add and still manage to produce the piece?’
