Tension

張力成形

Asterisk explores how the geometric principles of origami can be translated into sheet metal fabrication. By folding a flat metal sheet into a three-dimensional structure, the project investigates how the material's inherent tension and rigidity can contribute to both form and structural stability. The design was developed through digital modeling and physical prototyping, experimenting with folding angles, dimensions, and sheet thickness. Rather than relying entirely on additional structural components, Asterisk explores how the tension generated through folding can help the object maintain its shape. Asterisk / 星盤探索如何將摺紙的幾何原理應用於金屬鈑金，利用材料本身的彈性與張力，將平面板材轉化為穩定的立體結構。作品不使用焊接，而是透過金屬折彎後產生的張力，使各個部分相互支撐並維持造形。設計過程結合數位建模與實體打樣，反覆調整折彎角度、幾何尺寸與板材厚度，尋找材料張力與結構剛性之間的平衡。星盤藉由簡潔的構成方式，探索如何讓材料本身的物理特性參與造形生成，並在藝術表現與結構工程之間建立連結。
