Exploratory study — modular systems for light diffusion and spatial separation
This project investigated the design of a modular, interlocking element intended to create flexible visual partitions and semi-transparent spatial boundaries.
The study focused on how repeated units could be assembled into scalable configurations, allowing controlled light diffusion and partial visual separation while maintaining permeability. Prototypes were used to observe how geometry, spacing, and orientation influence shadow behavior and transparency across different densities and surface areas.
The modular system was evaluated for:
-
scalability across varying spatial requirements
-
ease of assembly and reconfiguration
-
balance between privacy, light transmission, and visual continuity
The project is presented as applied research into how simple, repeatable elements can be used to shape light and space through system logic rather than fixed structures.
