Generative Neo-Nature: parametric geometry meets the Golden Ratio in space.
In the Futurium, a multi-part sculpture grows organically from the floor, branches outward and spans an eight-metre arch into the room. Neo-Natur connects technology and nature: fully parametric, generatively based on Danzer tiling and realised in Rhino/Grasshopper — quasi-crystal logic, Golden Proportion. Together with Apfelhübsch and ART+COM I developed the systematics — modules, geometry and fabrication data — in collaboration with Schiel (planning office) and ArtEngineering (structural engineers). From 16 modules, 1,500 CNC-milled timber parts and 4,500 custom-designed connectors, a lightweight, highly complex body emerged; assembly was guided via AR/HoloLens. On a personal note: it was an honour to meet Joachim Sauter and realise this project together with him.
