For Eucarya Union Series, Plam Studio intervenes with a communication project through a hybrid video, blending classical video, experimental macro, and digital scanning. The result is the exploration of a new ecosystem through different observational techniques with the goal of offering unprecedented, but above all, unexpected and anomalous points of view.
Printed “biologies” meet nature by demonstrating that the combination of artificial, design and vegetation is possible. The Mosshelter, a green and garden design studio, in collaboration with HPO, a community of architects and designers, have created Eucarya Union Series. A project that combines the natural forms of mushrooms, redesigned and 3D printed in plastic material, with the growth of mosses and different types of ferns. The output is a semi-autonomous terrarium equipped with lighting. The cavity-rich structure typical of mushrooms now houses and protects the roots of vegetation that expands and prolifically invades the plastic.
Plam paid homage to this encounter between natural and artificial by combining different video techniques. Classic footage alternates with experimental macros and is enhanced by 3D scans and renders that allow the viewer a new point of view. The discovery of the interior of the device through the digital exploration of the 3D model that forms the foundation, the roots of Eucarya Union Series.
The result is an experimental video with a technological flavor that pays homage to the strength and delicacy of natural elements.
