Project Description

Minimal Surface Form Finding

Computational Form Finding and Minimal Surface Exploration

The project aims to explore minimal surfaces, forms, and its characteristic. The concepts were inspired by a dance video and dancers characteristics were examined to carry forward the design process. On the basis of three major elements, two dancers (Fred and Ginger) and sound, the design moulds in to a shape. The fred resembles the boldness, on contrast ginger represents flowy nature and sounds act as connecting element among them.

Minimal Surfaces is generated through the conceptualisation of dance movement and music.
