Experiments for the interior emerge from a series of questions about the relationship between the craft of making and new technologies of digital fabrication. These new methods are often employed in the fabrication of complex forms which often result in inordinately large quantities of wasted material as the complexity of form precludes the efficeint use of standard, flat sheet products. This project illustrates our desire to produce complex formal and spatial readings with an exonomy of means. A mixture of both advanced digital design techniques and traditional labor produced a ceiling where each part was custom and deifferent from the part next to it. This complexity yields a space where the form and materials are intergrated to create a sensuous experience that challenges th customer to reconceptualize the relationship between space and perspective.
The subtle variations in pattern and spacing for the ceilinig make it simultaneously open and closed depending on the perspective. The open and closed nature of ceiling also allows for the lighting and mechanical to be concealed above. The reflective nature of the raw aluminum acts as an illuminated surface where reflections of both spot lights and traffic from outside create various shimmering effects.
