About Big Aplysia Pellem

In progressione urbana, necesse est ut idem ambitus constructus emergat. Aedificia Instituta etiam moecha et procul videri possunt. Aspectus architecturae notae peculiaris notae necessitudinem inter homines in spatio architecturae emollit, fit locus ad videndum et vivificandum.

The Recognition

About the Praemium A' Design Award Argenteum

Big Aplysia Pellem victor est Praemii A' Design Award Argenteum, honoris eximie amplissimi formis summi generis, pulchris et conspicuis dati. Victores Argenti opera valde splendida et creandi ingenio praedita sunt, quae praestantem peritiam, talentum et acumen auctorum suorum ostendunt. Exspectatur Big Aplysia Pellem opus mirabile, exemplare, valde professionale et penitus novum fore. Haec forma Argento victa inventum notabile et admiratum est, quod ad fines artis, scientiae, formandi rationis et technologiae promovendos confert. Big Aplysia Pellem creatio est, quam multi invident, quae cupiditates excitat, sensus bonos affert et admirationem miraculumque movet.

Unique Properties: The body shape of the Aplysia with a fluctuating curve reveals bright colors. The curve shapes of the ocean waves bring forth the refraction of light on the sea surface. In the experience of swimming under the sea, one feels like the sunlight shining on the sea surface and shimmering into the sea water. These comprehensive abstract emotions have transformed and hidden in this parameter structure, with each in the crowd feeling a unique experience.
Dimensions & Packaging: W30000mm x D15500mm x H5100mm

Production Technology: Stainless steel, Glass. In the great amount of parameter construction, each piece of construction and each piece of glass is of a unified output with independent data, following the 3D stretching aesthetic relationship. On the 3D shape are generated 3D polygon parameters, while the polygon supports the pure flat glass surfaces in different dimensions.
Design Challenge: The morphological parameters of the 3D stretching of a hexagonal boy has constructed a spatial landscape and human experience.
Research: In the great amount of parameter construction, each piece of construction and each piece of glass is of a unified output with independent data, following the 3D stretching aesthetic relationship. On the 3D shape are generated 3D polygon parameters, while the polygon supports the pure flat glass surfaces in different dimensions. The multi-dimensional positioning system and the accumulation of manual construction errors have greatly increased the control of the parameterization and the control for the safe matching against the glass and the caliber errors.
Inspiration: The creation starts with the physical aesthetics of the Aplysia, which is fused with the characteristics of waves and sunlight.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2019 in Daya Bay, Huizhou, China and finished in January 2020.
Operation Flow: 3D cutting, Parameters to build
