Full Article:

The microscopic universe represents a realm of intriguing possibilities, albeit one that remains largely unexplored. Promoting science through innovative approaches is vital, and the emergence of STEAM stands as a viable tool for that. Architecture, as a realm that directly impacts society, presents a unique potential to convey this new language, manifesting through building facades, walls, or urban furnishings. This study aims to unearth this potential by scrutinizing microscopic images and transposing this universe onto surfaces. The technique involves the 3D mapping of patterns extracted from micrographs and their application onto minimal surfaces. Through digital fabrication, the microcosmic and architectural realms converge within a transdisciplinary framework. This research underscores the feasibility to connect various knowledge domains, rendering them accessible to a broad audience, enabling microscopic imagery to explore, in novel contexts such as architectural ones, a playful and inclusive means of presentation.
