My client collects a series of 1960s vinyl records. Therefore, my material choices is leaning towards the usage of vinyl, plastic and wires. With the previous bathroom design that creates an ear shape of the window, I would also like to integrate the concept into the material choice.
Material 1
The first material is a vinyl record being shaped into different angles using a heat gun. It is directly linked to my theme where I have also bought a cheap second-hand vinyl record for experimentation.
The second material I found interesting is a project about the space between the body and ear. The artist used different weights of wire to symbolise the ear’s unique shapes and widths. Instead of using something soft like strings, I found the use of wire can represent the organic curve as well as the firm feature of the ear.
