The design is based on the exploration of sounds. Transforming the fluidity of the sound waves into geometries, through computational design and digital fabrication. Its components had been designed acoording to its function and structural rigity that create a hole system. The panel is formed of a group of curves based in a sound wave, that variates and produce different sections. It is formed of 54 flexi-ribs joined by 108 intersections, and built of pvc sheets and mdf wood panels. The bar is composed by 76 sections of mdf wood panels. And the weight is distributed to the corners allowing to be floating in the middle.
