Architects Antonia Frey-Vorhammer and Simon Vorhammer, of SIAN, design jewelry that mirrors their highly intricate + geometric projects.

Technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in the design world in ways we thought were impossible and/or strange in concept. 3D-printed furniture, augmented reality retail stores, and AI-powered coffee makers are just a few examples of how technology moves the proverbial goal post so that what once might have been a little odd now becomes the new industry standard. For SIAN Design, technology has become integral in what used to be a very analogue and manual craft of jewelry design. Utilizing computer algorithms and virtual 3D modeling, SIAN generates precisely calculated fine jewelry defined by delicate lattices and geometric details.
SIAN is founded by husband and wife duo Antonia Frey-Vorhammer and Simon Vorhammer. The two translated their architectural expertise and background into designing jewelry that mirrors their highly intricate and geometric projects. In the below exclusive, Antonia explains in great detail exactly how every SIAN piece comes to life:

At SIAN, the integration of digital and analogue methods is the central aspect of our creative process.
For each design, we establish a computer algorithm that defines the logic and geometrical dependencies among all elements. Initially, this method is time-intensive, but allows us to explore numerous variants of complex geometrical formations through fast iterations b...
