Corollaria Gyroid is a sculpture we created for the Albany Airport which explores the connections between mathematics and the natural world, highlighting the presence of mathematical principles in biological structures. blog: https://n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com/blog/?p=9386

Measuring almost 7 feet in diameter, it is made up of 121 flat aluminum panels connected by 1789 rivets into an undulating surface perforated by morphing cellular patterns

The cellular filigree is inspired by the patterns seen in plant cross sections, bryozoans and the undersides of some mushrooms

The design is generated via a computational system we created which breaks a surface into flat puzzle piece panels that can be assembled without any forming, jigs or instructions into a complex shape

The sculpture will be on display at the ALB airport for the next 3 years. We are so excited to have our work on display at our local airport and also to have been able to realize ideas we’ve been working on in metal

I’m getting ads for clothes that are clearly generated by AI and don’t exist….but I’m still tempted to order them

We started assembling our sculpture for Albany Airport today!!! The “Corollaria Gyroid” is inspired by plant anatomy and mathematics. It’s composed of 121 flat panels lasercut from aluminum

Made this “hat” tile puzzle as a special request for a customer. Surprisingly challenging to put together! Pieces are 2x2” double sided wood

Working towards making a metal version this summer! In contrast to prior versions, the panels are visually seamless and the perforations make a continuous landscape of cellular pattern
