Brutal RuG

Brutalist Architecture rendered into a living rug, perfect for cozying up your new home when you get to singularity. Done in collaboration with Azul Cobalto.

Process

StyleGAN2-ADA generated latent space walks of a network trained on brutalist architecture. These animations are 2D, which we then use to drive a particle system. Here’s a Dezeen interview where the we dive deeper into the process.

Particles in this system are generated based on color and position of the pixels in the 2D image, and gently and infinitely swayed by a fractal turbulence field.

Music was then scored to the rendered loops using a analog-digital hybrid setup.
