Spline-Ribbon Forms
Style guide
Wide thin satin ribbons twist and layer around volumes, using alternating cross-section tones and open gaps for elegant flowing structure.
The visual language
What is Spline-Ribbon Forms?
Wide thin ribbons twist along the volume, with alternating bright and dark cross-sections establishing rhythm. Genuine gaps between layers make the form consist of continuous strips rather than stripes on a solid surface.
Spline ribbons build volume from a continuous thin band whose face and edge alternate as it twists.
A ribbon vase with visible gaps can reveal its path instead of resembling a striped solid shell.
