Leafshade

This research explores the design of a modular, interlocking 3D-printed leaf element that can be assembled to form curtains or visual partitions. The system allows light to filter gently through, creating a delicate interplay of transparency and shadow. Inspired by the form of the oak leaf, each module connects seamlessly with others, enabling scalable configurations adaptable to various spatial needs. The result is both functional and decorative—a flexible structure that balances privacy, light diffusion, and organic aesthetics.
