Cage

Cage lighting is produced with hot glass blowing and metal forming techniques. The amorphous and blown shaped units provide light refraction at different rates. Lighting units create an illusionic and crystalline effect on the glasses. Emphasizing the communication between light and freedom and the organic bond with a transparent, warm material like glass is the main idea in the design. Metal baskets resembling a cage are used in this series. One of them is the pinter, which is actually a tool used for fishing. This object is used as a lighting element in the design.

Solo Exhibitions Unlimited

The traceable light should be clean, it should not be muddy. The designer has reconsidered the property of light, light is a kind of wave, should choose the simple pure light wave. Projection lamp can make the shadow clear and pure in the space, the boundary is clear. What the designer needs is this kind of true expression, in which the viewer sees the object as it is, and is not disturbed or influenced by various other factors, including the influence from light. As the diamond sutra said in the should do so view.

Euphoria Retreat

The Spa at the Euphoria Retreat, is located in Mystra. It is a four-story building, of 3.000 m2, that is carved into the base of a mountain. The lighting for each space was considered as a unique piece, contributing to the crescendo of the ultimate relaxation experience. As daylight would vary substantially from one space to another, custom luminaires were designed to imitate daylight conditions, thus harmonizing the transitions through spaces and enhancing the immersive architecture.
