Symmetrix Natura
Where geometry meets nature.
Symmetrix Natura is a collection born from precision, balance, and artistic exploration. What started as my graduation project at the Utrecht School of the Arts, originally titled Mathematic Geometry, has grown into an evolving series of objects and installations that explore the relationship between mathematics, light, and material.
The collection has been presented at international platforms such as Milan Design Week and continues to develop as an ongoing research into form, symmetry, and reflection.
Design Philosophy
the heart of Symmetrix
At the core of Symmetrix Natura lies a fascination with structure and natural order. Inspired by mathematical principles like the Golden Ratio and Platonic solids, each piece investigates how geometry can be transformed into tangible, emotional experiences.
The result is a dialogue between two worlds:
– geometry and emotion
– technology and nature
– calculation and imagination
Each piece investigates how strict mathematical forms can still feel organic, playful, and alive.
Metal, glass, and light are used as tools to translate abstract formulas into physical objects that feel both technical and organic.
Materials as a Language
Metal, mirrors, glass, and light are the primary ingredients of the collection. Polished surfaces capture their surroundings, light creates movement, and geometric frameworks provide structure and rhythm.
Rather than producing static objects, Symmetrix Natura focuses on interaction: pieces change with their environment, respond to daylight, and invite viewers to explore them from different angles.

From Research
to Objects
The collection has grown through a series of experimental works and prototypes, including projects such as:
– The reflective KLDSCP-Polyhedron
– The SHPTI-G21 geometric sculpture
– The award-nominated PLUME-M22 lighting object
Each design represents a step in a continuous research process: testing forms, materials, and optical effects to discover new visual possibilities.
Light
as an Experience
A central theme within Symmetrix Natura is the way light interacts with geometry. Mirrors multiply space, glass refracts color, and precise structures generate patterns that shift throughout the day.
The works are not just objects to look at – they are visual instruments that transform their surroundings.
Symmetrix Natura
A Collection in Motion
Symmetrix Natura is not a closed project. It is an evolving exploration that continues to develop alongside my broader practice at Showoff Design.
New experiments, prototypes, and installations are constantly being created, forming the foundation for future releases and exhibitions.
