3iii Musings

444 7th Ave, Sculpture

3iii has designed a sculpture to be suspended in our latest interior design project for Dream Properties. 

Process:

The form was sculpted from drywall tape. There were about 20 different versions before the final form was chosen.

The form was then modeled in 3D with a software program called Rihno.

To confirm the sculpture size, the form was placed in a 3iii architectural rendering of the interior space. The size of the sculpture will be 4 mt X 2.5 mt X 2.5 mt.

The sculpture is being built by F&D Scene Changes here in Calgary. 3 mock-ups were created so the actual material could be chosen. Here is a small section of the sculpture.... the squares are laser cut from the metal sheet and then formed by hand.

The form will then be powder coated.... the colour has yet to be chosen.  :-)
