This project originated during a high-school math class.

I wanted to focus on applications of mathematics in real life which are often overlooked. This was a short exploration I initiated based on a mathematical concept that intrigued me: Asymptotes. There are varied real-life applications of asymptotes ranging from the trajectory of a raindrop to imbricated sections of a skateboard park to the plan of a building.

I used overlapping curves with asymptotic properties to create a floor plan. By superimposing 4 corridors that never meet, I created a composition that defines asymptotes: a line that appears to meet a curve but does not meet it at any finite distance.

The same composition was extended into a 3-dimensional study model, which included multiple math calculations.
