Motorcycle Helmet

Saturday, 23 August 2025

Gius 5

Gius 5 is a motorcycle helmet that combines protection, comfort and ventilation. Five independent air intakes work with a central negative pressure exhaust vent at the top of the crown, shortening the airflow path to expel warm and humid air. Each air channel has a manual valve that blocks wind and dust when closed. The visor uses a mechanical locking mechanism that prevents detachment during strong impact. The rounded jaw edge and recessed flexible lower edges spread impact loads over a wider area. The shell is molded from composite engineering plastic.

Kinetic Desk Lamp

Friday, 22 August 2025

Nevi

Designed by Andrei LiLo, Nevi is a desk lamp built around a self centering kinetic system. Constructed from hand finished Aisi 304 stainless steel, the lamp features a spherical base and a slender vertical stem. It functions as a task light with a focused beam, while also responding to touch with a gentle oscillation that returns the object to its vertical axis. The project extends to its aluminum packaging, which is designed to transform into a secondary ambient light. Released as a numbered limited edition, Nevi explores the relationship between kinetic behavior and material presence.

Sculptural Lighting

Thursday, 21 August 2025

No. 27

No. 27 is a sculptural candle created for ambient lighting in modern interiors. The undulating base is cast from engineered concrete and takes its form from a volcano. Transparent heat-resistant glass tubes of varying heights are set into the concrete base and serve as refillable liquid fuel reservoirs. Metal is used only for the wick holders, which limit heat transfer and support safe, continuous flames. The refillable fuel system removes wax waste. The piece measures 56 cm in length, 32 cm in width and 31 cm in height.

Fortex

Fortex is a waterproof safety boot engineered for high risk industrial environments involving chemical exposure, impact hazards, and mechanical stress. Its innovation is a chemical co molding process that bonds thermoplastic polyurethane components to an injected polyurethane base, forming a unified structure without adhesives. Integrated elements include a metatarsal guard, lateral ankle protection, and a reinforced heel counter. The design provides resistance to water, chemicals, hydrocarbons, puncture, and slipping, while remaining lightweight, ergonomic, and thermally efficient.

Residential Writing Desk

Tuesday, 19 August 2025

Ebisu

Ebisu is a residential writing desk designed to integrate work into domestic environments. The restrained proportions and balanced geometry allow the desk to engage with the living space rather than dominate it. A leather writing surface is flush mounted into the top, forming a continuous work plane. The structure is made of CNC machined MDF clad in natural pau ferro veneer and finished with matte acrylic varnish. Aged brass is used on edges, internal drawer dividers and a custom power box. Wiring is concealed through the legs to preserve formal clarity.
