The Soap Film Project

This project is a study of minimal surfaces created through soap film tests done using a range of wire-frame modules.

The wire-frame modules used for soap film experiments are made with arcs of circles, ellipses and are developed for growth and smart aggregations.

Soap Films always form an optimized surface — the smallest possible surface area for a given volume. This project goes through various physical soap film experiments and, with the help of digital tools, aims to showcase its scope for real world applications.
