1. Design Phase Muralla: was designed for Oda Design Lab, inspired by Ricardo Bofill’s La Muralla Roja. The design serves as an experimental study and a small-scale collage of architectural elements, consisting of four parts: wall, bartizan, stair, and cupola.
2. 3D Printing for Mold Base: 3D printer was used to create the mold base, providing the foundation for the next stages of production.
3. Silicone Mold Creation: The next step involved using silicone to create the molds.
4. Separate Part Production: As Muralla consists of four standalone parts (wall, bartizan, stair, and cupola), each part was created separately. This modular approach allows for numerous variations of the sculpture.
5. Jesmonite Casting and Assembly: Jesmonite was used as the primary material for the sculpture, offering durability and a smooth finish. Once the individual parts were cast and cured, they were assembled to create a unique bookend or decorative piece.
6. Marketing and Photography: to show Muralla at its best, these photos were taken to highlight its colors, textures, and different combinations.
