Project Overview
Geosphere explores reciprocal timber construction through a full-scale illuminated installation developed for Lumière: The Art of Light.
The project combined computational design with full-scale fabrication to produce a self-supporting timber structure composed of repeating interconnected members.
Integrated lighting transformed the structure after dark, emphasizing its geometry and creating a changing relationship between the installation, landscape, and surrounding exhibition.

My Role
Fabrication + Assembly
I contributed to the fabrication and physical assembly of the installation, working as part of the team responsible for translating the digital design into a full-scale built structure.
