About Line Rings Anèl

Line Rings es una colleccion de nòu anèls concebuda per metre en relèu l'interaccion entre lo portaire e la joielariá. Una esfèra mobila a l'interior de cada anèl lisca al long d'una pista e balha un retorn a travèrs del son, de la vibracion e de la rotacion. La colleccion s'inspirèt del labirint e de l'arquitectura geometrica. D'estructuras multi-segmentadas creèn de camins variats per l'esfèra. Los anèls son produits per impression tridimensionala e fondariá a la cira perduda en laton amb argentatge. Cada anèl mesura environ 4 sus 4 sus 4 centimètres.

Unique Properties: This project is a collection of nine rings that are designed to highlight the interaction between wearer and jewelry. The moveable sphere inside the ring provides feedback to the wearer through sounds, vibration, and rotation.
Dimensions & Packaging: Approximately 4*4*4 cm each
Tags: ring, line, movement, personality, jewelry
Production Technology: 3D Printing; Lost Wax Casting; Brass; Silver Plating
Design Challenge: Precious measuring. After experimenting with different 3D printed materials, I limit the thickness of the wire to 1.2mm, with a 6mm gap in between the rail to ensure the sphere flow constantly in the ring. It is hard to calculate the measurement in a 3D form.
Inspiration: The Line Collection was inspired by the labyrinth and geometric architectures. The moveable sphere inside slides in various directions along the track, while diverse multi-segment structures bring greater possibilities to the trajectory of the ball. I utilized 3D CAD techniques to bring precision and higher complexity in creating perfect line construction in small scale rings.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2019 in Savannah, GA, and finished in March 2020.
