Part 3: !Material Experimentation

BlingCrete!

!•  Blingcrete combines the positive properties of concrete

•  Retroreflective surfaces precisely reflect incident light back towards the light source

•  Its surface is according to its position, activated by light from both the light source and recipient

•  The properties of BlingCrete open up wide-ranging design possibilities in architecture, interior design or product design

Possible design techniques (1) -Concrete and pieces of mirror -Mixed together to represent a piece wall

Possible design techniques (2)

-Acrylic paint and Bubble paper -Paint between the gaps of bubble paper, mimic the design

Possible design techniques (3) -Concrete and marbles -Mixed together to experiment the reflection of the clear and color

Experiment (1) -Using color dough on a glass bowl -Using light to experiment the reflection

Experiment (2) -Using color dough on a mirror -Using light to experiment a better reflection

Experiment (3) -Using plastecine on a mirror -Using light to experiment the reflection
