Modular Design
What is modular?
• The artist creates a single unit that is a
form.
• The artist creates multiples of the exact
unit.
• The units are assembled together in an
interesting way.
Start with one well designed
module or unit.
Change module colors and place
together to make one overall form.
• The innovative Casamania from Claudio
Bellini is the newest urban modular
bookshelf appliance for any contemporary
room design.
• For indoor or outdoor use.
• Made from polyethylene
• Available in many colors; sky blue, white,
orange, light grey, purple, black, and red.

Dice Sculpture by Tony Cragg
Holly Holmes, Multiplication by Division,
Ceramic, Dims var, 2011
• Kristian Pedersen tested the boundaries of
legibility related to perspective and light; the
result was a 3-dimensional installation with a
modular sculpture forming the word legibility on
a rigid horizontal grit. The separate modules for
each letter consisted of simple plexiglass square
plates in various widths and lengths. “The aim
was to explore legibility that depends on the
position of the viewer; what makes sense from
one specific angle, may reveal different qualities
from another.”
Kristian Pedersen: “Interlace”
