About God's Math Функсияи асосӣ: Ҷевон
Матни китоб: Математикаи Худо ҷевонест, ки аз намунаҳои математикӣ дар табиат илҳом гирифта шудааст. Спирали Фибоначчи унсури марказии тарҳрезӣ буда, онро нисбати тиллоӣ ва давра иҳота мекунанд. Спирал ҳамчун сохтори пӯлодии кафшондашуда сохта шудааст, ки бадани чӯбинро дастгирӣ мекунад ва аз он мегузарад. Ҷевон дорои ду дар ва се қисм мебошад ва баландии он барои истифодаи бароҳат интихоб шудааст. Қабатҳои фаннӣ аз чӯби садаф (розвуд), afzalmapl (birdseye maple) ва кокоболо миқдори чӯби сахти лозимаро кам мекунанд. Андозаи ҷевон 1219 мм бар, 508 мм чуқурӣ ва 1981 мм баландӣ мебошад.
The Recognition
About the Ҷоизаи оҳании A' Design Award
God's Math Функсияи асосӣ: Ҷевон ғолиби Ҷоизаи оҳании A' Design Award аст, ки эътирофи обрӯманд буда, ба тарҳҳои хуб дода мешавад, ки талаботи касбӣ ва саноатиро, ки аз офаридаҳои хуб тарҳрезишуда интизор меравад, иҷро мекунанд. Ғолибони оҳан маҳорати бузург, ихтисоси баланд, фаҳмиши коршиносона ва иқтидори эҷодии офаринандагони худро нишон медиҳанд. Интизор меравад, ки God's Math Функсияи асосӣ: Ҷевон офаридаи хеле қадршуда, мавриди таҳсин ва маҳбуб бошад, ки амалӣ ва навоварона аст. Ин тарҳи ғолиби Ҷоизаи оҳании A' Design Award беҳтарин амалияи соҳаро муттаҳид мекунад ва хусусиятҳои босалоҳияти фаннӣ дорад, ки бо донишҳои амалӣ ва истеъдод пайваст шудаанд. God's Math Функсияи асосӣ: Ҷевон барои диққаткорияш эҳтиром мешавад ва барои таъмини беҳбудиҳои сифати зиндагӣ, ки ба беҳтар кардани ҷаҳон кумак мекунанд, тарҳрезӣ шудааст.
Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- God's Math successfully melds multiple reoccurring mathematical phenomena in nature into an aesthetically pleasing and fully functional interplay of these phenomena, with the Fibonacci Spiral serving as the central design element, surrounded by the Golden Ratio and the divine circle. A fully functional cabinet seemingly floats in an ergonomically optimized location on a piece which is as interesting to look at as it is efficient and practical in its use - Much the same way nature finds order out of chaos.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Width 1219 mm x Depth 508 mm x Height 1981 mm

- Production Technology
- Project included welding, woodworking and advanced lamination techniques. Rosewood, birdseye maple and Cocobolo were veneer laminates to ensure a sustainable design. Custom forms and creative veneering processes required for both scale and non-linear faces of the piece.
- Design Challenge
- In order for the spiral to accurately represent the Fibonacci Spiral, the mathematical elements were scaled up and represented by the steel welded superstructure. The spiral itself is three distinct components: veneers bent around a form, pressed in a form, and laminated carved pieces of wood. Tangentially related, incorporation of the steel structure into the spiral as it sits within and extending through the spiral.
- Research
- Research conducted on both advanced methods for lamination and the recurring mathematical phenomenons found in nature. A great deal of time was spent pondering how to create an aesthetically pleasing and fully functional interplay of these phenomenons, with the Fibonacci Spiral serving as the central design element. Some experiments were run on stability of laminates for such a large and heavy piece, as well as veneering outside curves.
- Inspiration
- The repeating order in our universe, from galaxies to microorganisms shows repeating patterns which can be demonstrated through mathematics. Italian mathematician, Leonardo of Pisa, wrote about this in 1202 in his book, Liber Abaci. The golden ratio is another recurring mathematical ratio which has captured the attention of some of the greatest minds in history. No design referencing God’s math would be replete without the divinity represented by the circle.
- Project Duration
- Project began in November, 2019 in Greenville, SC and finished in April, 2020. Currently stored in studio.
- Operation Flow
- working cabinet with two doors and three compartments.
