Reticular Form 3

This piece is part of a series of curious-looking vases inspired by the forms of “reticular” structures in the brain and elsewhere. 

See here for video: https://youtu.be/1x4cdOGU4r0 

“Reticular” forms are characterized by a fine network or netlike structure. The most common anatomical example is the reticular formation in the brain, one of the oldest parts of the brain that plays a crucial role in consciousness.

When designing these pieces, I imagined what it would be like to inhabit and move around inside of these shapes. 

To add a dash of function, the forms have a hole at the top that can be used to hold your favourite organic plant material. The 26mm diameter hole will also hold a 1” test tube or similar container for water.

Heartstrings Tealight Holder Square

Peer inside the heart-shaped openings in this tealight holder and you’ll see a complex surface structure inspired by the “chordea tendineae,” thread-like bands of fibrous tissue that anchor your heart valves in place. The chordae tendineae are colloquially known as the “heart strings.”

What could be more romantic?

The heart-shaped profiles are formed by slicing precise cross-sections of the mathematic Fischer-Koch C(Y) triply periodic minimal surface.

Again, super romantic, right?

Watch the timelapse video closely and you will see layers of hearts hidden inside.
