About Unity リング

Unityは18金イエローゴールドで作られた、指を長く見せるファッションリングです。1917年に始まったデ・ステイル運動に着想を得たデザインで、長方形や円柱といった基本的な視覚要素を用いて、シンプルで抽象的な構成を形づくっています。大きさの異なる長方形が反復し整列し、中空のものと充填されたものが組み合わさることで、リズミカルなパターンと視線を導く動きの感覚が生まれています。リングのサイズは20.80×18.76ミリメートル、重量は7.95グラムです。鋳造に先立ち、ワックス原型を3Dプリントで制作しました。

Production Technology
This project has been designed and developed in the 3D Matrix program. First, a 3d model was created and sent to a Projet wax 3D printer, then a prototype was printed with wax. After checking the size and visual aspects of the prototype, a plaster mold was created, and afterward, the ring got cast.
Design Challenge
The main challenge was to stay simple and not to over-deliver on the design, It was something I generally struggled with.
Research
Neo Plasticism relied on the most basic elements such as color, line, and form only in their purest, most fundamental state to convey universal and absolute truths, in other words Reducing art to pure components.
Inspiration
Impressed by the De Stijl movement founded in 1917 the designer of the Unity ring intended to use basic visual elements such as rectangles and cylinders to find a simple abstract composition through geometry and to form a coherent whole. Multiple rectangles with different sizes are repeated and aligned together, some arranged to be hollow and some to be filled, this will create a rhythmic pattern and convey a sense of movement and provides a path for the viewers eye to follow.
Project Duration
The Unity ring was designed in December 2019 in Tehran/Iran.
Operation Flow
Lady's fashion ring
