Polygon H, Polygon L, Puddle by Nikola Lajić, Foundry Đaković, Foundry Ljubisavljević, designed by Nikola Lajić

The pieces Puddle, Polygon H and Polygon L are a part of the cycle that emerged from a research and design process centered on investigating the role of form and its function in shaping human experience. At the core of this process is the question of how visual and perceptual qualities – mainly geometry and material – affect the way an object is understood, felt, and remembered by the observer.

Form was considered not as a static or decorative element, but as something active, capable of influencing perception, behavior, and ambiance. The creative approach explored how natural phenomena could be translated into art by exploring the underlying principles of how they occur – growth, transformation, and material interaction – and how they could inform design. The outcomes were left open, embracing chance and interpretation, inviting viewers into a space of imagination, reflection, and discovery.
