My project, Spike City, is a wearable architectural accessory inspired by Frank Gehry\u2019s deconstructivist design style. Using bold geometric forms such as cubes, triangles, and sharp structural elements, I transformed architectural principles into a sculptural wearable piece. The design focuses on modular construction, dramatic volume, and wearable functionality, combining architecture and fashion through Rhino modeling, wood, and 3D printing. The final piece explores how structure itself can become both artistic expression and wearable design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19978,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[120],"class_list":["post-19975","student-work","type-student-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-elective","tag-digital-fabrication-body"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nHeyuan Zhang - Parsons Notes<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/parsons.edu\/undergrad\/student-work\/heyuan-zhang\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Heyuan Zhang - Parsons Notes\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"My project, Spike City, is a wearable architectural accessory inspired by Frank Gehry\u2019s deconstructivist design style.
