FEUILLE

by Nicolò Bertino / Emilie Brin

Questioning the logic of gravity and perception of nature, we thought of an open pattern which integrates its surroundings, creating a free image with blurred boundaries. We designed a thin aluminium sheet of 2500x1200x3mm to be cut like a puzzle into perfectly corresponding shapes. We assembled the free shapes together with interlocking slits, the composition delicately reaching structural stability. The pattern creates a free-flowing, light partition, balancing matter and void, form and structure. The open pattern appears to be floating in its environment, reflecting parts and light, blending into the landscape.
