The research design of the prototype "Particle Trail" represents a fusion of the organic with the technology of a real-time 3D digital development platform, expressed in travertine. The conceptual design is based on an approximation of the internal structure of cancellous or spongy bone, as observed through a Scanning Electron Micrograph. Through complex manipulation to explore possibilities for transformation, we created an architectural element able to function as a new model of support. Through algorithmic shaping, our cancellous structure became ‘Particle-Trail’ as two arch-shaped structures – equal but opposite – the supporting structure of a table.
