Pentragram emerges from the symbiosis between the geometric rules of an irregular pentagonal tile and the adaptability of the Chinese tangram. In the field of geometry, an irregular pentagonal tiling is a plane tiling where each tile is in the shape of an irregular pentagon, generating a tessellation pattern.
The Chinese Tangram has a playful aspect, allowing for the creation of various aesthetic combinations, both abstract and figurative.
The Pentagram series embodies the concept of generative design a posteriori, where the system is conceived according to a set of rules, allowing the user to create new combinations and explore the full potential of these creative and functional building blocks. This is a creative co-creation process between users and designers, exploring the concept of shape grammars (creating formal combinations based on predefined rules such as rotation and translation), and materializing the concept of furnitecture, the convergence between architecture and furniture.
