Living Vessel: Rotoform Form Study
Living Vessel
This vessel houses a carefully arranged air plant, rock, and stick. The form of the vessel embodies the characteristics of the elements that the vessel houses.
Through carefully though out orientation, arrangement, and relationship between the vessel and its elements, the vessel is designed to be a visual and physical interface within the environment they are placed.
Project Brief: Objectives
-
to introduce approaches in form-giving through the use of the lathe and a vacuum thermoforming process.
-
to create a vessel form that visually complements the formal qualities of a specific natural element.
-
to create a functional object that interfaces with the environment/content.
-
to develop a set of critera and articulation for form-making decisions.
