Is it Engineering or is it Art ?

Is that Engineering or art?

Came the other day under this roof, which is a walkway on the other side … and was a bit surprised by the structural design. Was the KISS principle applied here or maybe we missed the most fundamental?

 

Is that engineering or art?
Is that Engineering or art?

其中包括:

  • biggest beam interrupted by much smaller ones
  • aluminium ceiling (floor on the other side) in any directions
  • what complicated path for light cables then (among others)
  • at least 4 sizes of beams, and counting
  • they had some materials to recycle?
  • …

So the big question: maybe we missed the most fundamental … is that art?

 

We are Product Design specialists, not structural engineers neither artists,

so we let you judge, comment, tweet or repost to help us understand

When Applied to Product Design: it is good practice to use standard off-the shelf pieces versus one made-to-order piece when possible. This is even more crucial when production volume is low or even one-shot … but sometimes the rule should not be respected
