ONDA Diffraction

ONDA Diffraction is a 3D printed vase where algorithmic design meets striking material contrast.

This piece explores diffraction, the phenomenon that occurs when waves encounter an obstacle or aperture and bend to spread out in new directions. The sweeping textures wrapping its spherical form mirror the exact behavior of light passing through a prism, sound bending around corners, and fluid dispersion. The bold bicolor split between black and white amplifies the wave pattern, creating a visual dialogue between organic form and graphic precision.

Design & Materials

• Generative algorithm: Each curve follows mathematical wave dispersion principles
• Bicolor PLA: Half black, half white split creates dramatic contrast
• Glossy finish: High-shine surface emphasizes the sculptural depth
• 3D printed: Additive manufacturing captures organic complexity layer by layer
• Unique texture: Diffraction patterns create tactile richness across the surface

The ONDA Series

Part of the ONDA series, three vessels investigating the wave as universal pattern connecting natural systems and digital technology. From ocean surfaces to data transmission, the same geometric principle shapes our world.

• Material: PLA (Polylactic Acid) - bioplastic
• Finish: Glossy bicolor (black & white)
• Technology: FDM 3D printing
• Care: Wipe clean with soft cloth, avoid direct sunlight
