Egg Case Final






The main pursuit behind this design was the implementation of both symmetry and asymmetry. Symmetry alone can be stagnant and indifferent whereas asymmetry alone can be chaotic. I wanted to apply both aspects of form to create a dynamic and balanced design. Also, an egg is not a sphere, it is not even a perfect oval, so I did not want to pursue an idealized spherical/symmetrical form. The result was a symmetrical planar form as the center surrounded by an asymmetrical linear form resembling various shapes of stars.
