The striking, temporary installation, Serra Gate, a modular sculpture designed with Mathematica software and modeled using 3D printing technology, is currently a centerpiece in Istanbul’s thriving city center, Taksim Square. The Square made headlines last year as it was the site of major protests in the struggling democratic republic of contemporary Turkey. Serra Gate, an homage to Minimalist sculptor, Richard Serra, was designed by cutting-edge architectural firm Global Architectural Development (GAD), an Istanbul- and New York City-based, world-renowned firm that incorporates 3D printing in its process and designs.
