ABOUT
Geonic: The wonderful world of geometry can be discovered with a pair of compasses and a ruler. If you dig deeper you can also see the fractal geometry of nature.
From circles, triangles, square, pentagon, hexagon, octagon and rhombus I have developed a Geonic System with which you can create fascinating sculptures, objects of any size and shape. A three-dimensional puzzle. Since all modules have the same edge length, they can be joined together with simple rubber bands and thus shaped. What is created is up to your imagination. In this way, shapes can emerge from the surface into the room. The Geonic modules are like the alphabet in order to be able to discover the language of space. Building Geonic is like going on a journey of discovery into the fascinating world of living mathematics and forms. The Geonic can be shaped as a piece of jewelry with the smallest versions of the modules or as an inspiration. Decorative elements, packaging, art objects and light sculptures are created. They can also be used as inspiration for furniture, exhibition stands and architecture. It is possible to recreate platonic solids and solids of fractal geometry. The beauty of the forms can be realized as a 3-dimensional body. They invite the viewer to create more complex, fractal shapes, to look at them more closely and to discover them. Geonic is a kind of laboratory and module technology is a simple alphabet to transform the geometry of space into beautiful objects.
With Geonic it is possible to build shapes and bodies of fractal geometry. The beauty of the forms can be realized as a 3-dimensional body. They invite the viewer to create more complex forms, to look them more closely and to discover them. Geonic is a sensual, haptic experience. The first two modules are connected with a piece of rubber, then the next and the next ... During construction, you repeatedly experience insights and a deeper understanding of the logic of the room. One is amazed how harmonious and beautiful the resulting, finished object is. Geonic encourages imagination, concentration and dexterity.
With Geonic Modullen it is possible for the first time to easily create complex shapes and fractal shapes. You can use Geonic like three-dimensional "Design generator" as inspiration for light designers, furniture designers, architects, artists and of course for everyone who works creatively or who is only interested in fascinating bodies and shapes. Working with Geonic not only inspires new ideas but also promotes concentration. It's like "design meditation" The modules themselves can be manufactured in different sizes. The modules can not only be punched into colored cardboard with different densities, but also slogans, messages and logos can be printed.
Geonic is simple to implement and manufacture and yet incredibly versatile in its application, the imagination is limitless. The overall concept is not only to use Geonic like the "new" Lego, but also as a lamp, light object or sculpture. Geonic in all modules (triangle, rhombus, square, pentagon, hexagon and octagon) and their combinations you can create unlimited shapes, possibilities and applications are only visible when creating and surprise us. Cardboard in different thicknesses or other innovative materials can be used as materials for different requirements. The modules can also be made of transparent paper, polypropylene or other transparent materials.
