Geometric Hexagon Modular Stainless Steel Sculpture Installation

This modular stainless steel sculpture combines multiple geometric hexagon units into an arched public art installation. The perforated patterns and gold-silver contrast surfaces create strong visual rhythm and light interaction. Designed for commercial plazas and architectural facades, it brings a playful yet structured aesthetic, making the space more engaging, dynamic, and visually recognizable for visitors.

Scenario Applications

  • Commercial settings: Office building plazas, corporate campuses, hotel lobbies, sales centers, etc.
  • Cultural & tourism settings: Cultural plazas, parks and scenic areas, campuses, exhibition halls, etc.
  • Private settings: Villa courtyards, private clubs, art galleries, etc.
  • Suitable environments: Open-air outdoors, indoor climate-controlled spaces, seaside/high-salinity environments (rust-resistant specifications), etc.
Process Details

  • A 1:1 scale model made of ABS plastic is produced using 3D printing technology. For the sculpture’s surface, 2.0mm-thick 304 stainless steel sheets are used; these are cut based on layout lines marked on the model and shaped into the required curvature through manual forging—involving approximately 3,000 hammer strikes per square meter—followed by assembly and spot welding. Flat sections are precision-cut via laser based on Rhino software designs and then assembled. The finishing process begins with grinding down weld seams and forging marks using 80-grit abrasives, followed by progressive sanding with 120- to 320-grit sandpaper to achieve a smooth, even surface. The coating sequence is as follows: first, an epoxy zinc-rich primer; second, application of high-temperature automotive body filler (putty) sanded smooth with 400-grit sandpaper; third, another layer of epoxy zinc-rich primer; fourth, application of a two-component colored topcoat; and fifth, a protective glaze/sealer finish. Finally, the sculpture is oven-baked at temperatures between 100°C and 180°C for 80 minutes.
  • The outdoor sculptures utilize 24V low-voltage LED light sources, eliminating the risk of electric shock. Advanced power supply and control systems enable the lighting to synchronize with the rhythm of the music, producing color-changing and flashing effects.
Design Philosophy

  1. Modular Geometry System
    Repeated hexagon units create a flexible composition, forming an arch-like structure that feels both organized and playful.
  2. Light Through Perforation
    Cut-out patterns allow sunlight to pass through, producing shifting shadows and layered visual textures on the ground.
  3. Material Contrast Balance
    Combination of gold and silver finishes enhances depth, helping the sculpture stand out against modern architectural backgrounds.
