Dear Ladies and Gentlemen! Our design studio Zieta Prozessdesign specializes in innovative design, ultra-light constructions and small architecture produced using our steel stabilization technologies, like FiDU and 3+, and is working on various projects around the world. We would like to present samples of recently finished unique objects, the exquisite effects of the synergy between design and technology. They show the broad spectrum of the bionic sculpture proposals produced in the innovative steel stabilization technology – FiDU. With this short preview we would like to offer you the possibility of co-operation in design and production of one-of-a-kind sculpture that would be valuable addition to the building architecture of your design. The founder of the company – Oskar Zieta, is one of the most innovative designers, who not only developed the technology of ultra-light constructions - FiDU, but also granted them an inimitable, artistic character.

FIDU TECHNOLOGY

FiDU - the technology of the future. Individualized shapes: FiDU stands for Freie Innen Druck Umformung - the Internal Pressure Forming - which implies inflating two steel sheets welded around their edges into a 3d object. It takes only two thin steel sheets to create a complicated and very durable 3d object from steel in FiDU. FiDU allows to create innovative, customized, individualized bionic shapes and fully recyclable objects using very efficient mass production processes and individualized shaping methods.

FIDU BRIDGE

The foot bridge has a span of 6m and a net weight of only 174 kilograms. The span to weight ratio astonished even the enlisted ETH structural engineers. The expected 500 kg were easily supported during a professional stress test, and a top weight of 1850kg exceeded all expectations giving the FiDU bridge a 1:10 weight to loadbearing ratio. Thus, FiDU was positioned as a new player in the ultralight construction class.

FIDU BALL

A modular object, a more than 4m diameter icosahedron, explored the application of such characteristics as planned contour control, precision and rigidity in FiDU. In this case, high precision was required. 90 elements in total were produced. This project was the first successful completion of a refined, precise, threedimensional construction from FiDU elements.

SEAHORSE

A large modular construction has been successfully realized using the FIDU-method. The resulting elements feature surprisingly high efficiency in terms of self-weight / load-bearing-capacity ratio, as well as relatively low processing effort. The project was created as a part of research at the ETH Zurich at the ITA Institute, Ludger Hovestadt.

ARCHITONIC

The elements of the Pavilion needed to fulfil many requirements. Installations like this have to be light and durable, easy to transport, easy to assembly and durable enough to maintain their quality during all the events, fairs and exhibitions. Each single element of a construction is configured to stabilize and influence the appearance of the whole structure. There is a ‘chaotic parameter’, which creates a visually-attractive installation.

RONDO MIRROR

Large-scale convexities that appear on the surface of the mirror are literally able to alter the space. It’s like making an individualized interior design of the moment when by rolling the mirror from one place to another everybody can create or rediscover a well-known environment to a brand new and grasping concept.

PIRELLI LONGBOARD

Zieta company as one of the steel processing innovators was involved in the brand new project for the longboards produced in FiDU technology. Their minimalistic and pure form made in polished inox steel, copper or in its black and white version allows their displaying either at home of a skating fan or a luxury but elegant ambiance.

BLOW & ROLL

The installation, called Blow and Roll is made of largescale steel elemens of different lengths up to 20m and of different heights. The aim for the installation is to take advantage of FiDU’s flexibility and to create objects that will interact with the dominating form of a pond (fountain) giving it the 3rd dimension. To strengthen the effect, glossy stainless steel was used – reflecting itself in the water, surroundings and the elements – one in another.

BALLANTINE’S BAR DESIGN

We compared the process of making Ballantine’s 12 whisky’s to the material stabilizing process, experimenting with internal pressure to make steel ‘melt’ . This inspired us to reverse the regular process of inflation that I use, and to turn it into an implosion to stabilize the ultra-thin material. Even though the process is industrial, the overall look is of melting ice cubes. It will work as a false mirror so that everything around it will melt too.

CARDI BLACK BOX

The super-unique Plopp in aluminium is a manifest of new possibilities efficient production process but also flexibility to use different metals and finishes to make a product one of a kind. We wanted to keep the pure and dreamy mood of this futuristic bazaar where you can buy a product per kilo. The basics of the exhibition were to use a material and a finish we have never used before to make a new limited series of products for the gallery.

DESIGN ALIVE TROPHY

The trophy is a 28 cm high and weigh 1,25 kg made of steel and brass with copper sheetting. Design Alive Awards is the first Polish prize for original and creative thinking that fulfills needs of a new generation of the consumers. The ambitious role of DAA is pointed at creators and promotors who deliver products.

CYCLOPE

In ancient Greece, the Cyclops helped Hephaestus to forge thunderbolts for Zeus and Poseidon’s Trident. Now, their strength is reflected in steel once more. We created The Cyclops sculpture without the aid of any mythological powers, using the FiDU technology instead.

CRATERAIR

CraterAir is the most unique sculpture in Arik Levy’s body of work. It’s one of a kind character is due to the properties of FiDU. Until now Levy was in control of the parameters of his sculptures, to the smallest detail. With FiDU, he could only control key joining points of the geometry, while surfaces and the negative space were the result of free deformation, or ‘controlled loss of control’.

WHALE CHAIR

Design is like a lense, but instead of light, it brings into focus various disciplines. From everyday life to hard sciences, it creates a new quality that redefines new functions. Volumetric expansion focuses bionics, technology, design and innovation, together shedding new light on the world of tomorrow.

ICON AWARD TROPHY

We have worked on the trophies for almost two months. There is a special relationship between the draft and final project in FiDU technology. With FiDU technology we can only control key joining points of the geometry while surfaces and the negative space are result of free deformation by internal pressure. These are the moments when material takes some designer competencies and becomes a partner in designing process.

FIDU SWORD

FiDU SWORD is trophy designed and made by us for warrior of creativity - winners of Polish Advertising Competition organized by KTR. The idea in “hands” of ad makers is like a sword becomes a double-edged weapon which is used accordance with the code of the Knights of Creativity. Oscars are the most valuable prizes to the people of contemporary cinema but the name Oscar means “sword of God”. But it’s not just a sword and a trophy it is something more.
