SH 12

SH12 is a wall clock, which plays on the relation of an object and its shadow to create concealment and exposure. It represents the subconscious nature of time, and reveals hours only by its shade / shadow. Shadow, is a living thing which only follows something that is alive. Time cannot be seen. Reality is controlled by time, and unreality emerges in shadow. The true essence of the passing hours is masked beneath an elastic fabric. A functional design, combining both hard and soft materials, mysteriously veils part of itself beneath a silky surface to bring forth the shadow.

Infinitum

Infinitum is an arduino-powered table that turns on when items are placed on it, and which turns off when they are removed. This infinity mirror table is designed for people who never tidy up, but leave their belongings everywhere. Lou decided to design a table that would light up when objects were placed on it, giving people a beautiful backdrop for their objects and the illusion of an infinitely deep hole in the floor. The table is a set of plexiglass mirrors, set up so that the LEDs between them reflect an image back onto the fully reflective mirror.

Paper Teller

Paper Teller is a diploma project. Each day, the user is invited to detach a sheet to discover the wordless story told by the cuckoo clock in a year. A box is designed to accommodate pages tore out. The user can read the story at the end of the year while a new block is placed on the clock and another story begins on the wall. This simple object fits many living rooms thanks to the sober design and the decorative black and red illustrations.

La

The design having initially materialized with the lightness and sobriety of aluminum, the sinuous curves that result from the continuation of the ergonomics, as you can see, all lines have softened to the maximum, so the aggressiveness of the piece is minimal, the final image is of a contemporary product, updated design, lightweight materials and finishings that support the idea of continuity in time. The design which has been carried out, has no stridency, is attractive and comfortable. Resulting in a piece that is left looking on all sides.

CONTAINER

The CONTAINER shelf (Vessel Collection) is the maximum expression of a design based on the philosophy of dematerialisation. Form - massive and assembled with bolts and screws that have been left visible - is the leading player. It is composed of flat metal and wood panels . All the structure is completely disassembled and each element that composes it is identifiable and traceable to its original state

Doorknob

Doorknob is a playful wall mounted key holder that looks like an actual doorknob. Hang keys by inserting one key into the key slot. The slot is designed to fit with the key shaped keychain, as well as any other generic house key. The spherical knob doubles as a coat and hat hook. The idea is inspired by the funny moment when the designers couldn't find their keys, and realized that the keys have been hanging on their doorknob the entire time. The project started in 2013, and was showcased at the First Things First exhibition in NYC in 2014.
