Light Up the Love River Bay

Light Up the Love River Bay is an exterior lighting project for the Love River Bay in Kaohsiung. The project is divided into three sections. Architectural luminaires light the riverbanks over a wide area and change color slowly. Concert lighting on the Kaohsiung Music Center changes color quickly in time with music. Meteor lights form eleven hexagonal installations that recall islands between the seas, covering 3,300 square meters on the water. The cross-harbor light of the Great Tiger Bridge spans 400 meters. Residents can select the riverbank colors through an application.

Ledvance

Ledvance is a professional outdoor area light designed for demanding weather conditions. The Opti Select beam control system allows quick switching between Type III, IV and V light distributions through an electronic switch, without removing lenses or screws. A 360 degree hovering LED structure forms a ventilated gap that improves heat dissipation and lets water and snow drain from all angles. The trapezoidal housing, seamless top surface and weatherproof coating limit glare and water ingress. The control module also accepts sound and light sensors.

Otsuchi

Otsuchi is a table lamp made from deer leather sourced in Otsuchi, Iwate, Japan. The town was struck by the tsunami caused by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. Local crops were later damaged as the number of deer increased and the number of residents declined. Local hunters began a game meat business to make use of deer hunted as pests. The lamp is built from a 3D printed structure covered with deer leather, and the texture recalls the form of a living animal. The design honors the life of the deer and offers a calm presence.

Kinetic Desk Lamp

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.
