(B6) CHLADNI PATTERN DEVELOPMENT

-

 

  • I liquified a grid that I hand drew and created these strange shapes. I then went on to mirror them multiple times to create these intricate, geometric patterns
  • I thought the manipulation of the grid will take the control from me for a more random shape like the Chladni plate materials
  • By mirroring the design it makes the lines more and more complex like that of the higher frequencies in the experiments. They also make me think of the multiple genres that metal has mixed with the be classed as Alternative Metal
  • Aesthetically the design is interesting to look at and I think would be appealing on the merchandise we have planned to design 
  • The purple and red work well together in these designs too without being too overpowering because there is still a large amount of negative space 
  • I prefer the more square patterns at the start and the last one just above. They are not too complicated and still show the difference in complexity that I wanted 
  • This development does meet my aim of looking more digital than my initial ideas

Pointed arches Another identifiable feature is the pointed arches. These are found in most places of worship i.e churches and cathedrals. It is suggested that the pointed style of these arches was taken from Islamic architecture rather than the typical Romanesque buildings found typically in Europe. The idea behind the shape of these wind...

In order to understand the texts related to Gothic architecture, I really need to understand the terminology as I aforementioned when looking at the previous text. I will be listing definitions along the way to better understand. Also, if my designs will have an informational aspect, it would be better to use this terminology or synonyms at least for whatever target audience I choose.  (All within the context of Gothic Architecture) Pointed Arches  Large pointed arches typically found on the Gothic buildings, also seen in many places of worship Large Stained Glass Windows Hugely associated with churches and cathedrals but, also a key feature in Gothic buildings  Ribbed Vaulting  There are a few different types of vaulting, ribbed vaulting is the one most commonly associated with Gothic architecture. It is an integral structural element to support these large buildings.  Flying Buttresses A similar feature is flying buttresses. They also act as an extra support f...
