Roots of Regeneration

Intro

Light Installation

Commissioned by Il Prisma research team, this immersive light installation serves as a physical "landing" for a year-long study on regenerative architecture. Moving beyond the static nature of a thesis or book, the research is reimagined as a living organism.

At its core lie six fundamental questions regarding societal, environmental, and human impact. From this center, fiber optic filaments pulse outward, guiding visitors through a branching ecosystem of answers that lead to deeper inquiries.

Before entering this "neural network" of data, visitors pass through a semi-permeable membrane featuring a projected preview of a pavilion designed from this very research. It is a visual manifesto: behind every architectural form exists a complex, breathing foundation of thought.

Challenge: Making the length of the wire glow without losing too much light intensity before reaching the end nodes.

Solution: I applied a balanced abrasion technique to each individual filament. By precisely scuffing the surface of the wires, I allowed light to "escape" along the sides, creating a continuous glowing line that guides the eye through the research narrative.

The Challenge: Organizing dozens of questions and answers into a branching structure that felt organic yet remained readable and logical for the visitor.

The Solution: I utilized generative 3D modeling to simulate the growth of the installation. By coding the branches to "grow" based on the relationship between data points, I ensured the final physical form was a direct mathematical reflection of the research ecosystem.
