The unusual Nervous System "2-layer Twist" Stainless Steel Ring is not your average trendy cocktail ring. Cast in lightweight stainless steel, the ring is formed by layering the steel to create a highly durable piece. The ring's motif resembles a moth wing or the inner structure of cells with its rounded, twisted cutout silhouette. Covered with textured silver-toned particles all over the surface, the ring is finished with a high-tech method of 3-D printing. The ring measures 7.3 millimeters and is secure and comfortable enough for all-day and all-evening wear. Slip this airy, unique ring on with some simple silver jewelry for a modern urban-chic effect.
Nervous System is an experimental design studio that uses new technologies to reinterpret natural phenomena.
Instead of designing individual objects, we write computer programs that detail a design process which generates a myriad of designs. Our studio is a place where necklaces aggregate like corals, rings structure themselves like radiolarians, and furniture grows branches and blooms like plants.
New manufacturing techniques like rapid prototyping allow for the creation of a series where each piece is unique and also allow the production of three dimensional forms that would be impossible to make traditionally.
These interdisciplinary experiments borrow from our studies of architecture, biology, math, and computer science to produce works whose beauty and complexity are rooted in a deep understanding of natural systems.
Nervous System is based in Western Massachusetts. It was founded in 2007 by Jessica Rosenkrantz and Jesse Louis-Rosenberg, who met as undergraduates at MIT. Jessica studied biology and architecture while Jesse studied math and computer science.
