The project
‘Diseñar el aire’, a project by Vicent Martínez developed into an exhibition for World Design Capital València 2022, brought together fans conceived by international designers. Archicercle collaborated on their digital fabrication, working from the authors’ designs.
Our contribution focused on developing strategies and adapting the vector designs for fabrication. The aim was to realise the pieces as their creators had conceived them, keeping design authorship distinct from our collaboration in their production.
The work combined processes drawn from earlier experience with others that were new to the studio. The range of proposals presented a challenge of adaptation and learning throughout fabrication, with approaches developed in response to the different designs.
The collection features varied forms and graphic treatments: slatted fans, arrangements of rounded blades and circular pieces, alongside floral and chequered patterns. This variety conveys the scope of a collaboration focused on translating different design languages into physical objects.
