Patterns of tectonic act aesthetically meaningful interaction design, material and shape, and carried by its carrier particles to peculiarities of plastic processing, in the nature of articulation and proportions.
Confirmation of the above can serve as a seemingly simple, the example - the formation of clothes. Experienced designers, constructing a particular model of clothing, come primarily from the fact that the thing should be subject to the properties of the material from which it is made. Choosing a fabric to create one form or another, they primarily take into account the density, mass, elasticity, width and color of the material. Thus, roughly processed wool products is recommended for rectangular or clothing that is designed from the right angles and vertical rhythm devoid of folds that are difficult in this case, the installation. Soft, wide fabric (or processed) can create more complex and varied in silhouette, and the rhythm patterns of clothing. Narrow fabric requires direct form, with the lack of width filled space that is slits at the bottom of the garments which provide comfort for body movement.
Another example. The smooth, rounded forms of ceramic vessels (amphorae, jugs, pots, vases, etc.) were the result of their manufacture of soft plastic clay on a spinning potter's wheel.
Man has created a huge number of forms of real world, which are grouped in a certain way based on the analogy of their structures. A variety of shapes of buildings, furniture, appliances, transportation and other items based on a relatively small number of major structural systems. Thus, the extremely large number of tectonic forms of furniture (chairs, armchairs, tables) is based essentially on four structural systems: Panel, frame, frame, and spatial.
In the panel design of the resulting force is opposed to the mass of material, so the chair of this type is a clumsy, massive form. It is difficult to budge, and sit in this chair only in a straight posture.
The form of the chair frame structure defined by the laws of statics, based on the bending and compressive concentrated efforts are aimed in the right direction, which freed the construction of unnecessary safety margins. Artistic media emphasize the relative ease of forms, especially the reference leg, as if springy under load. |
