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.
Design Philosophy

  1. Fluid Interlock Form
    The looping ribbon structure creates a continuous sense of motion and connection, forming a unified abstract shape from every viewing angle.
  2. Warm Brown Finish Surface
    The painted metal finish in warm tones adds depth and texture, helping the sculpture blend naturally with architectural environments.
  3. Landmark Urban Integration
    Designed for open public spaces and campuses, it serves as a visual focal point that strengthens spatial identity and recognition.
