5Rings
Ein Schaufenster der Nachhaltigkeit im 3D-Druck
5Rings ist ein Schaufenster innovativer Fertigung und unserer Fähigkeit, sinnvolle und schöne Objekte zu schaffen, die die Nachhaltigkeit unterstreichen. Dreizehn Designer entwickelten einen Ring zur Erinnerung an internationale olympische Leichtathletikveranstaltungen. Jeder Ringentwurf wurde fünfmal in emailliertem Silber, pulverbeschichteter Bronze, Edelstahl, Polymilchsäure und Acrylharz hergestellt. Alle Ringe wurden auf ihre einzigartigen ökologischen Auswirkungen hin untersucht. Die Ringsammlung zeigt, dass ein und dasselbe Grunddesign unterschiedliche Auswirkungen hat, die von den Materialien und Produktionsmethoden abhängen.

5Rings was a collaborative project among many talented design students at the University of Oregon. The design team consisted of 13 designers who each worked to produce a ring of their design in 5 different materials. Each designer ideated and prototyped a ring that was inspired by the 2024 summer Olympics. The designers took the span of their three month long university term to design and produce these rings. The designers relied on each other to workshop ideas and help each other be successful. They also used help from their professor and other artists from the university.
