The Design

About Unvisible Landscapes Svetilka

Nevidne krajine so serija svetilk, ki temeljijo na tridimenzionalnih fraktalih. Oblike spominjajo na urbane krajine in so ustvarjene v programski opremi za fraktalno modeliranje. Na površine so v programski opremi za tridimenzionalno modeliranje aplicirane karte premika (displacement maps), nastale oblike pa so natisnjene s PLA filamentom. Vsak natisnjen predmet je opremljen z LED trakovi in napajalnikom, tako da je fraktal predstavljen v obliki svetlobe. Serija naredi matematične strukture vidne v fizičnem prostoru in jih prenese na področje umetnosti in oblikovanja.

The Recognition

About the Bronasta nagrada A' Design Award

Unvisible Landscapes Svetilka je prejemnik Bronaste nagrade A' Design Award, zelo prestižnega priznanja, ki se podeljuje izjemnim oblikovanjem, ki se odlikujejo po ustvarjalnosti, iznajdljivosti in bistrosti. Prejemniki Bronaste nagrade so v celoti spretni in presenetljivo ustvarjalni artefakti, ki potrjujejo bogate izkušnje, domišljijo in zvitost svojih oblikovalcev. Od Unvisible Landscapes Svetilka se pričakuje, da bo visoko cenjen, občudovan in ljubljen predmet, opazno profesionalen in inovativen. To oblikovanje, nagrajeno z Bronasto nagrado A' Design Award, vključuje najboljše prakse v umetnosti, znanosti, oblikovanju in tehnologiji ter je odlično po pozornosti do podrobnosti. Unvisible Landscapes Svetilka sijajno zadovoljuje potrebe, se dotika želja, očara čustva in vzbuja radovednost.

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
