Description

This project aims at training modeling capabilities by designing a set of tableware, based on the design language of a chosen architect. Silver Wave is inspired by works of Zaha Hadid, featuring organic floating curves, which is strong rather than tender. By studying the essence of her architectural language and then applying it to my design, I tried to create shapes that will appear to flow as the viewing angle changes. With each piece in different size and shape, the tableware as a set follows a consistent design language.
