The Design

About Artificial Topography Umjetna Topografija

Veliki namještaj poput špilje Ovaj je nagrađivani projekt osvojio veliku nagradu za umjetnost u međunarodnom konkursu kontejnera. Moja ideja je izdubiti volumen unutar spremnika kako bi se izgradio amorfan prostor poput pećine. Napravljen je od samo plastičnog materijala. Oko 1000 listova mekog plastičnog materijala debljine 10 mm rezalo se u obliku konture i laminirano poput sloja. Ovo nije samo umjetnost, već i veliki namještaj. Budući da su svi dijelovi mekani poput sofe, i osoba koja ulazi u ovaj prostor može se opustiti pronalazeći mjesto pogodno za oblik svog tijela.

Unique Properties
Big Furniture Like a Cave
This is the award-winning project won the Grand Prize of Art in Container International Competition. My idea is to hollow out the volume inside a container in order to build amorphous space like a cave. It is made of only plastic material. About 1000 sheets of the soft plastic material of 10-mm thickness were cut down in contour line form and were laminated like stratum. This is not only art but also big furniture. Because all the portions are soft like a sofa, and person who enter into this space can relax by finding the place suitable for the form of its own body.
Dimensions & Packaging
It was spaced out across the shipping container's 40-foot length to create.
Width 2400mm x Depth 6000mm x Height 2400mm

Research
I am a great interest in nature especially the system of nature. Two years ago, my exhibition held in England. In the exhibition, a lot of experimental architectural projects and the execution works in each category that I obtained the inspiration from nature such as “Solar”, “Air”, ”Water”, ”Ground”, “Crystal”, “Biological”, “Flower”, and “Aurora” were exhibited. Because these aimed to approach “Nature” more closely, it was named “Nature-oriented Architecture”.
And therefore, this “Artificial Topography” is the recent project of the Nature-oriented Architecture as “Ground” category.

Project Duration
This was exhibited during from October 1st to November 23rd in Kobe Biennial 2011 in Japan
Operation Flow
Person who enter into this space can relax by finding the place suitable for the form of its own body.
