About CityWood 木製地圖藝術品

CityWood係一件木製地圖藝術品，將城市呈現為一個立體物件。城市街道、水域同景觀分別由唔同嘅木層表現出嚟，各層之間營造出深度感。每一層優質膠合板都經過激光技術切割，打磨至表面平滑，再以人手組裝。呢啲木層鑲嵌喺一個木框內，闊450毫米、高450毫米、深30毫米。呢件藝術品可以掛喺牆上，亦可以擺放喺書桌上。木材天然嘅紋理令每一幅地圖都獨一無二。

Unique Properties: CityWood is a wooden map artwork. City streets, water and landscape are represented by separate wooden layers. Each layer is precisely cut using laser technology. It is a three dimensional design that combines modern technology (laser cutting, GIS, OSM Data) with the beauty of wood and craftsmanship.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 450 mm x Depth 30 mm x Height 450 mm

Production Technology: The design is a multilayered city pattern object framed in wooden frame. Each layer of polished fine quality plywood is cut using laser technology.
Design Challenge: The final design is a product of a long battle between wood and city pattern. To find this unique proportion of width and depth of the each street, many prototypes were created. The color of the wood of each layer makes the whole design readable and visible as a city map.
Research: The map itself is a beauty. I wanted to transfer it to a three dimensional object. My long study of maps and GIS technology made it possible to acquire a current maps of the cities. Using laser technology I was able to create a layered model of a city. Wood is a uniquely patterned natural material and it was chosen for this design. It gives an additional rare value for each work.
Inspiration: Inspired by a actual city the project shows a city space as a 3d object. Thin yet very complex street pattern, cut in wood layers looks like minimalist modern abstract art.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2017 in Warsaw, Poland.
Operation Flow: The wood art depending on its size can hang or stand on the desk. Whether in the living room, dining room or office space.
