This design extracted inspiration from nature and took the sunflower, the form’s origin. We attempted to adopt simple geometry derivatives and compositions to create a non-geometric organism conceived out of natural. We employed six prismatics as the basic structural element of the Sunflower Stool. With periodic cross-link of the apexes in the space, we formed a prototype of the mechanical structure. Subsequently the model was transferred onto the computer and digital methods were used to perform random extrusion, twisting, stretching - Thus through the unnatural geometry operation, the original even constant geometry resulted in a natural haphazard and organic. Rule regress to ravioli, order into disorder. The establishment to find entropy.........
