The exploration of the natural forms in the Catalan Modernism has been conceived with the water. In this tile the flow becomes both form and function. The organic form and natural topography seem to be the results of the natural shaping process the sea water produces by touching upon the sand bed. The topography of [...]

Antique Chameleon
Chameleon Tile Сlick to see the process! Our inspiration is simple, since we are in the city of Gaudi, we chose one famous work of Gaudi in Parc Guell : the Chameleon. And because of the shape of the tile we are going to make is in hexagon, we tried to achieve a design that [...]

Lotus Flower
The Lotus Flower it’s a kinetic and dynamic structure. The goal of the exercise was to producing 3d printed pieces and explore the design opportunities arising from the potential and limitations of the technology to create a dynamic assembly with 2mm diameter rods linked together by 3d printed pieces. Our idea was to design just [...]

The Whirling Dervish
The aim of this exercise was to create a kinetic structure with rotational movement with minimal number of 3d printed joints. It is a free standing structure made up of 20 2mm fiberglass rods, through two 3D printed perforated rings of dia.. The form resembles a conical cylinder which when rotated at different angles form [...]
