DESIGN NAME: Freeze
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Jewellery transformer set.
INSPIRATION: Originally this collection was inspired by the diversity of snowflakes. It's impossible to count variety of these nature-made fractals. So designer wanted to create something that can be transformed many times and each combination can be different.
Original form of every snowflake is hexagon, so the core element has hexagon form as well.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project represents jewellery constructor set which can be transformed to a brooch, earrings or pendant.
Magnetic lock in the center has 4 different patterns and can be combined with 4 types of delicate titanium plate. This snowflake can be combined with needle to be worn as brooch, or with a tab to be worn as pendant or earrings.
Design can be transformed multiple times into 48 possible combinations.
