Composition is an art, element is a science


Who can relate crystal to stainless steel? The credit goes to the incredible Japanese designer (Tokujin Yoshioka, http://www.tokujin.com) who created this masterpiece of art for a crystal company using stainless steel!
What you've seen in the photo is the new retail outlet of a famous crystal company in Ginza, Tokyo. The designer uses stainless steel to create a reflection of cyrstal at the entrance of the retail shop. This can't be done without in depth understanding of elements. We use knowledge of science in creating masterpiece of art... when art goes back to science, science looks for answer in the nature. I think I'd better get closer to the nature to get a breakthru in science :D
