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.

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.

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.
