Astoria

Astoria is a table lamp made of MDF, glass and brass. The base is CNC engraved and includes a USB charging port and a pen holder.

Island Hair Salon

Jacksam Yang Hair Salon Interior Thursday, 27 April 2023

Island

Island is a hair salon set inside a forty-year-old house of 165 square meters. The renovation avoids elaborate decoration. Recycled decorative logs replace interior walls and act as divider screens, creating a see-through effect, a brighter room and a simple, clear flow. Abundant green foliage and climbing plants fill the space. A gravity-powered watering system based on siphon theory replaces mechanical irrigation, filling eleven tanks evenly and adding the sound of dripping water. The design brings natural elements into an urban setting.

Ethereal is a hair salon interior located in Taipei. The space covers 133 square meters. Wood is used as the main material, and its solid character is combined with surrounding textures.

Curved and linear forms, ink-like gradations and natural scents create a calm atmosphere. The design is intended as an urban retreat where visitors can relax.

Stoccolma Flexible Lamp

Giulia Liverani Flexible Lamp Lighting Monday, 24 April 2023

Stoccolma

Stoccolma is a flexible wall lamp designed to move light where it is needed. The lamp is formed by two cables held in tension between four anchor points. Each cable combines a brass wire, which gives structure and carries current, with an elastic wire that allows sliding. A circular brass disc holding an LED runs along the cables and can be turned by hand through 360 degrees. Stoccolma can light a corner, serve as a reading light beside a bed or illuminate a table. The structure removes the need for a separate power cable.
