The title for my graduation project came there due to many reasons. BREAK comes from: Breaking the line between two elements, One element breaks itself lose from the other one, A breakthrough, A pause, Mathematical: one opposite or divided by the other, Grammatical: the little sign between two words which separate them, Just a short catchy word.

Identity facade

The goal is to create a textured surface which makes a space more tactile and creates a dramatic flowing space. This while creating a new material which ideally should be sound-damping and insulating.
  
As a conclusion my motivation came there to give and identity to the monochrome architecture in this world. Since the design should create a personal scene it will be adjustable to the clients preferences. By this fact the screen will create a different look on the outside and inside while giving identity to the façade. With a simple element the design will create a different scene/atmosphere in each interior (and related exterior) space. Due to this aspect the screen will create a space within a space.
  
The design also came there due to the reason that we all have our private border and the fact that in our lives we constantly get confronted with borders. Such as the border between inside and outside and between private and public. I also got confronted with these borders in my research and want to seek for a possible solution.
The fact that I want to create a screen also came there due to the reason that I want to develop something that could be new on the market and can be produced.
