Cell Cycle
A collection of 3-dimensional cellular jewelry inspired by the microscopic shells of radiolarians. The complex forms were created through simulations of the physical forces in a cellular network. Each piece is built up layer by layer using 3d-printing. You can use our interactive webGL app to morph, twist, and subdivide; transforming a simple mesh to a complex patterned structure.
Designs are available in 3d-printed nylon, 3d-printed stainless steel, and sterling silver cast from 3d-printed wax. The intricate bi-layer forms would be impossible to create by traditional manufacturing methods.
