"The Mitochondria" - a parametric botanical sculpture in geometrical glass vessel by TerraLiving. • • • Design concept & philosophy • • • Mitochondria are "nuclear reactors" or powerhouses of the cell. They are double membrane-bound organelles found in most eukaryotic organisms (ranging from plants to animals). Without mitochondria, advanced life forms like us, humans, and our world will never exist. Through an expression known as biomorphism, our designers create artistic de

"The Embryo" is a palm-sized biomorphic sculpture that focuses on the shapes and forms in nature, such as cell division and bone-lattice structure. While it may be an unfamiliar term to many people, biomorphism expresses nature in synthetic forms, particularly sculpture. There are two primary forms of biomorphic art, analog and digital. With digital biomorphic art, computer modeling programs are used to generate organic shapes or create abstract designs that imitate natural f

Early this year, one of our fans wondered how the biomorphic "Eden" structure feels like when surrounded by our signature moss wall in the Vertex, in contrast to our usual wood-root variant. We accepted the challenge and started working on it. What looked so simple took us months of computer simulation and prototyping to strike the right balance for the "Eden" structure to blend well into the moss wall, all within tight space in the glass. Our designers had to re-build the "E

“The Colony - M” houses inner layers of rustic oak tree bark that were artisanally sliced and sculpted to form eye-catching mountainous rocky spires that rise out of the surrounding ZERO Moss specimens. Due to the very nature of moss itself, it is nearly impossible to find an exact copy of each colony. Interestingly, they may look distinctively different due to different cultivation environments, seasons, atmospheric pressure, and light intensity. We may also observe some rar
