Paper art Christmas window design

The famous LAVA (Laboratory of Fantasy Architecture) recently designed and produced a set of modern Christmas art window displays for la Rinascente, a well-known Italian department store. LAVA’s window display is a set of origami coral reefs, made using 1,500 recyclable cardboards. It can be said that such a window design is a perfect combination of nature and human architecture!

Strictly speaking, this is a paper sculpture. This set of paper sculptures adopts a dynamic structural design, giving people the impression that the coral reef is climbing up the wall. At the same time, due to the geometric construction principle, you can feel the foam and coral groups rising from the waves. At the same time, dynamic light and music are also used, so it has a strong sense of movement.

Bosch is director of LAVA and one of seven designers who created the Christmas window display. This showcase is in the Renaissance department store Piazza del Duomo, in the center of Milan. This is also the first time that Renaissance department store has invited artists to design its Christmas windows.

This design adopts a unique structure and pattern, perfectly integrating nature and architectural space design, and using small units to create a fantastic effect. In nature, coral reefs themselves are a type of amazing and wonderful creations in natures architecture, but now they are applied in modern design in this way.
