The Design

About Unvisible Landscapes Lámpara

Unvisible Landscapes es una serie de lámparas basada en fractales tridimensionales. Las formas evocan paisajes urbanos y se generan mediante software de modelado fractal. Los mapas de desplazamiento se aplican a las superficies en un software de modelado tridimensional, y las formas resultantes se imprimen con filamento de PLA. Cada objeto impreso se equipa con tiras LED y una fuente de alimentación, de modo que el fractal se presenta en forma de luz. La serie hace visibles las estructuras matemáticas en el espacio físico y las introduce en el ámbito del arte y el diseño.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: 3 dimensional fractals that bring associations with urban landscapes generated in fractal generation software and then transposed to physical space by 3d printing and presented in the form of light.
Dimensions & Packaging: Model 1: Width 170 mm x Depth 120 mm x Height 26 mm
Model 2: Width 200 mm x Depth 150 mm x Height 16 mm
Model 3: Width 420 mm x Depth 320 mm x Height 15 mm
Tags: fractal, fractals, 3d print, 3d printing, light
Production Technology: Fractal generation through Mandelbulb 3d software. 3d processing was made by applying displacement maps to surfaces in 3d modeling software. Physical objects were printed on a 3d printer with te use of PLA filament and then equipped with LED strips for lighting.
Design Challenge: This design is a part of the project 'Unvisible Spaces' with the aim to visualize and sonify 'unvisible' phenomena that take place in nature and introduce them to the field of art and design.
Research: Fractals generated by mutation of formulas and navigation in Mandelbulb 3d software. Then rendered and transposed into video, digital prints and 3d prints.
Inspiration: Objective mathematical notions must be thought as timeless entities and are not to be regarded as being conjured into existence at the moment that they are first humanly perceived.

Roger Penrose, The Road to Reality. A complete Guide to the Laws of the Universe.

Eternal beauty (...) nor this beauty will appear like the beauty of a face or hands or anything corporeal, or like a thought or knowledge, or existing in any other being, but a beauty itself constant and eternal.

Plato, The Symposium
Project Duration: The project starded in 2019, and was exhibited in Pavilion 02 in Venice in May 2019
Operation Flow: A light with a power supply
