Through our designs, consciously and unconsciously we explore moods and
emotions. The shapes, spaces, play with light and shadow are all relevant only to
the degree that they are perceived by someone, that they touch someone, that they
are able to provoke a sincere reaction.
We are able to experience a wide range of emotions, we go through a variety of
moods, throughout aday, a week, a season, a year, a lifetime.
Throughout our work we have been drawn to exploring this multiplicity. We
think our built environment should be able to reflect the complex moods and
emotions we experience and seek. Some of our pieces are stoic and solid, some are
delicate and filigrane, some are playful, some are abstract and others are figurative,
some are warm and vibrant and others more elusive and distant.
We are attracted to the idea that by placing a certain piece of lighting or furniture
within a space, one could add a layer of complexity to the existing space, one could
insert a certain mood, create a certain atmosphere around that piece. The Disc and
Sphere pieces explore a variety of such moods.
Some are abstract and have an aura of mystery and elusiveness, which they transfer
to the space they are placed in.
Some have warm brass colors and round shapes evoking an aura of femininity and
warmth. Others have cool silver surfaces and straight lines and angles; they appear
more restraint and technical.
Some are more figurative and symbolic, elusive yet familiar at the same time. Yet
other glass pieces are reminiscent of landscapes, with dreamlike flowing contours.
Each piece creates an aura; by placing two or three pieces within a space, the
different moods begin to interact thus creating the complexity and variety that we
believe enriches us because it speaks to the breadth of emotions we are capable of
and experience throughout our life.
