Designed by #RuchikaGrover, this special-order, backlit Kona #installation stands as the backdrop of a #waterbody, creating a series of dynamic #reflections on the #water surface.⠀

This custom #Kona #panel at #TheRowHotel at #AssemblyRow, #Somerville, #USA, is designed as an assemblage of multiple pieces that come together seamlessly through interlocking joints when installed.⠀

The design of this upcoming #Kona #installation at The Row Hotel at Assembly Row, #Somerville, #USA, responds to the client brief, which asked for an #ArtDeco-inspired #mural. Conceptualized by #RuchikaGrover

The Fasetto, designed by our #RuchikaGrover, is part of our Ishi Kiri Collection, derives inspiration from the #traditional #Japanese #paperfolding art #origami. Patterns are an #embossed interpretation of the engraved pattern from ceiling of the #TajMahal in #India.

This custom-designed #table is carved out of #petrified #wood and stands on copper legs. The #geometricpatterns of the Kona are inlayed into the wood in Pristine #WhiteMarble.

Step 7: Once the #millingprocess ends, product is worked on by #skilled #stoneartisans. #Intricate details & #textures are carved into the stone. More importantly, however, this step helps add a “human touch” to a predominantly digitally-fabricated product

#anomaworkprocess
Step 5: The #milling process begins with the placing base stone on the #CNC machine bed. A rotating #cylindricalcuttingtool performs cutting & drilling operations on the stone that move along multiple axes while the base stone is moved in different directions

Step 4: Once the #threedimensional model is prepared, dimensions are translated into manufacturing directives and fed into a Computer Numerical Controlled (#CNC) #millingmachine at our digital fabrication unit in #India.

Step 3: Once the two-dimensional drawing takes shape, three-dimensional modeling comes into the picture. Employing software programs such as Autodesk 3ds Max, intricate textures and details are added.

Step 2: Once the concepts are finalized by #RuchikaGrover, the process moves to computer-aided designing where the rough ideas are built upon – precise measurements are determined for the #patterns and #details added in depth…

Over the next few days, join us as we reveal our unique work process in steps – from #design conceptualization, all the way to #fabrication & #installation.
Step 1: Our process usually begins with our Creative Director #RuchikaGrover sketching out rough concepts

Conceptualised by @ruchika_grover, The Kinetic #01 Illuminated Cuboids add life to #natural stone. The patterns explore #parametric movement, are carved out of thick natural stone with three material options – Pristine White Marble, Crema Limestone, and Graphite Grey Granite

#WIPWednesdays #Throwback

Behind-the-scenes peek of our team #3Dmapping the intricate #stone carvings at, the Great Stupa at Sanchi, India. Our parent brand @odyssey.abstractions’ design for the Torana Gate was a reinterpretation of the mapped relief work.

#Dewdrop features #patterns that are alternately embossed on and engraved into #Pristine #WhiteMarble. Its flat segments, however, are done in #MotherofPearl, which creates an interesting play of light and shadow.
