to evaluate on our design process we studied differnet forms, their interplay and aesthteic value
90 degrees
Geometrical forms follow strict rules of clear edges and angles.
They offer a stable perception with no suprises.
But what happens if we disrupt these shapes with natural, accidential counterparts?
Stability
The enduring principles of the Bauhaus movement suggest a perpective of solidity and transience.
Breaking with patterns creates a harmonious tension between grounded structures and precarious arrangements that reveal a poetic narrative where stability and instability intertwine.
Individuality of shape
Form is fluid. Nothing is stable.
We searched for stability in the brutal conformity of concrete but found individuality trough deconstruction of figure into individual, never to be replicated shapes manifested in the material.
Symmetry
Inspired by the theory of asymmetrical balance, as delineated by Jenny A. Baglivo and Jack E. Graver in their book "Incidence and Symmetry in Design and Architecture," this exploration unraveles the captivating interplay between tension and resolve, as unequal visual weights. In this sense a Van Gogh painitng is aestetically pleasing, because our mind does not need to see symmetry, just similarity.
Clashing shapes
Within the realm of design's enigmatic dance you can search for the profound interplay of forms, their elusive aesthetics, and collective allure.
You´ll most likely be succesfull finding it in the collision of shapes, away from symmetry and stability
