Defining the Phygital Reality

The transition from digital concept to physical sculpture requires precise validation. To test different iterations of my structural works, I required a dynamic simulation.

While traditional lenticular objects often color the prisms fully from base to peak, my intention was to create a version where only the extreme peaks are colored, leaving the raw geometry exposed. I built this simulation specifically to decide on the exact depth of color application before entering the physical manufacturing and painting process.

Below is the interactive simulator used in my conceptual process. It allows you to explore the physical logic of the artwork by choosing between different color themes, adjusting the spatial rotation, and—most importantly—controlling the application depth of the color. You will notice that the most striking, uncompromising effect is observed when the application depth is pushed entirely to the base.
