Structured Nothingness

Jordan Sambogna

STRUCTURED NOTHINGNESS is an embodiment of string theory within the context of contemporary society. The project aims to reveal the intricate and interconnected nature of reality by juxtaposing industrial materials with delicate, dynamic forms. It illustrates the hidden complexities of systems whose inner workings are not immediately apparent.

What is a good design for you?

A good design is rich in cohesion.

What was the most challenging experience during your studies?

The natural world inspires me.

Why did you choose to study in your programme?

I wanted to explore new dimensions of storytelling.

I am not sure. There is a lot I will miss.
