Proportional Felting: Gray Garmon

Using the ancient Egyptian proportions of 18 units and sub units divisable by 3, I created a component comprised of pipes.

I continued my previous study of components that can function as both function and ornament, repeating this proportional component across an elliptical surface. I attempted to create a “felting” quality to the surfaces, that appear as if many layers have been added and condensed.

In further studies, I used the same component in smaller dimensions to create areas of extreme density that come close to being solid, and thus could function like columns for beams.
