About Freeze Umsebenzi Oyinhloko: Isethi Yomcebo Eguqukayo

Umbhalo Wencwadi: I-Freeze iyisethi yomcebo eguqukayo engagqokwa njengebrotshi, njengamacici noma njengomgexo. Isiqu esiyi-hexagonal siphethe isikhiye sikamagnethi esinamaphethini amane ahlukene, angahlanganiswa nezinhlobo ezine zamapuleti amancane e-titanium. Inaliti iguqula lesi sitembu sibe ibrotshi, kanti ithebhu ivumela ukusetshenziswa njengomgexo noma njengamacici. Kunokuhlanganiswa okungamashumi amane nesishiyagalombili okungenzeka. Izingxenye zesiliva zakhiwe ngobuchwepheshe bedijithali, zaphrintwa, zathelwa futhi zaphuculwa. Izingxenye ze-titanium zisikwe ngomsebe we-laser, zaphuculwa futhi zenziwa i-anodise. Izimo ze-hexagonal zilandela ukwehlukahlukana kwezingqimba zeqhwa (snowflakes) ezitholakala emvelweni.

Unique Properties: This project represents jewellery constructor set which can be transformed to a brooch, earrings or pendant.
Magnetic lock in the center has 4 different patterns and can be combined with 4 types of delicate titanium plate. This snowflake can be combined with needle to be worn as brooch, or with a tab to be worn as pendant or earrings.
Design can be transformed multiple times into 48 possible combinations.
Tags: transformer, magnetic, snowflake, jewellery, design
Production Technology: Materials: silver, titanium, neodymium magnets.
Silver parts were 3D constructed, printed and casted. Then polishing and assembling.
Titanium part were laser cuts, polished and anodised.
Inspiration: Originally this collection was inspired by the diversity of snowflakes. It's impossible to count variety of these nature-made fractals. So designer wanted to create something that can be transformed many times and each combination can be different.
Original form of every snowflake is hexagon, so the core element has hexagon form as well.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2018 and finished in January 2019 in Moscow
