Modelled with algorithmic softwares such as Rhinoceros, Grasshopper and Houdini this was designed along with Andrej Pavlov, a designer who specialises in 3D programs.

Composition:
Chocolate mousse, confit raspberry, confit black currant, chocolate sponge cake, shortcrust dough, chocolate spraying.
