About Mila Hidroponska vaza

Mila je serija hidroponskih vaza za sobne biljke. Kolekcija obuhvata tri veličine, malu, srednju i veliku, kako bi odgovorila različitim potrebama sadnje. Oblici su inspirisani dimnjacima na krovu Kaze Mila (Casa Milà), sa uvijenim linijama i površinskim teksturama pretočenim u ritmičnu formu. Svaka vaza je izrađena od providnog materijala VeroClear i proizvodi se direktno PolyJet 3D štampom, bez dodatnih procesa. Jednodelna dvoslojna struktura omogućava da se spoljašnji zid i unutrašnji rezervoar preklapaju, dajući providnoj površini maglovit i slojevit izgled.

Unique Properties: This series of 3D printed vases contains three different sizes of hydroponic vases, which can satisfy the needs of different planting. The material uses VeroClear translucent material based on PolyJet 3D printing technology. This translucent material provides a hazy feeling to their appearance and adds a touch of mystery. Structurally, this series of vases adopts a one-piece double-layer structure, which makes the translucent material appear layered, making it more layered.
Dimensions & Packaging: S:Width 180mm x Depth 180mm x Height 180mm
M:Width 108mm x Depth 108mm x Height 290mm

Production Technology: This series of vases is printed with PolyJet 3D printing technology, and VeroClear translucent material is used to realize the direct molding of products without other technologies. VeroClear translucent material supports a range of color options and has a good texture.
Design Challenge: It is interesting to extract the form of the chimney on the roof of Casa Mila and blend it to create a new form. How to integrate these elements and make the whole set of vases conform to the modern aesthetic is a challenge.
Research: Abstract and analyze the shapes of the chimneys on the roof of Casa Mila to explore their rhythm. The modeling language of these chimneys is mostly spiraling lines or two-sided continuous texture patterns on the surface. Combining the two forms a brand-new form full of vitality, so as to explore the change of texture and the sense of power of form.
Inspiration: Inspired by the work of the famous designer Antoni Gaudi - the chimney on the roof of the Casa Mila. These chimneys are beautiful in shape and seem to be rising with the smoke, full of vitality. This work refines and changes the shape of the chimney on the roof of Mira Apartment, such as twisting and blanking, to make it more rhythmic and varied.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2022 and finished in February 2023 in LuXun Academy of Fine Arts.
Operation Flow: Pour nutrient solution or water into the vase, put the aquatic plants in it, change the water and trim the plants regularly.
