Léon

Léon means to engage the user in a lighting experience, leaving behind traditional archetypes of home lighting and with this the physical switch. Employing two proximity sensors controlling hue and brightness, the user lifts and lowers their hands over these sensors to determine the lighting effect. As light is intangible, it is apt that the switch should be too. Through a more poetic interaction with light, Lewis believes the user will find a renewed sensitivity to the lighting atmospheres they create.

Datelite

Datelite subtly and effectively reminds you of memorable moments through the manipulation of light. Every day the lamp remains on, casting a glow onto the wall; but some days are not like others. During days that mean something to you, such as birthdays and anniversaries, the halo of light spreads farther across the wall and illuminates the room with light. Every day deserves to be remembered. With Datelite, make your life brighter.

Bubble

Bubble is a minimalistic table lamp, designed to be interactive with the user. Executed with a sphere carved from a block of marble found in the state of Espirito Santo, Brazil, has a brushed brass rod with a LED lamp inside. The adjustment is made when the sphere is rotated over the brass ring of the base. This simple support system allows numerous positions and placements together giving a dynamic character to this lamp. To produce the Bubble, various types of marble and metal can be used and mixed and the inspiration came from the well-known child's game by blowing bubbles through a straw.

ResoNet Sinan Mansions

ResoNet Pavilion is commissioned by Sinan Mansions in Shanghai for the celebration of Chinese New Year 2017. It consists of a temporary pavilion plus an interactive LED light 'resonet' attached in the inner surface. It employs Low-Fi techniques to visualise the resonance frequencies inherent in the natural environment, via the interaction of the public and surrounding elements detected by a LED net. The Pavilion illuminates the public realm in response to vibration stimuli. Apart from visitors can come to make Spring Festival wishes, it can be also used as a performance stage.

Amoeba Wall

Inspired by the shape-shifting abilities of amoeba, Amoeba Wall is a flexible and illuminated robotic wall system that moves and changes shape on command. The wall's backlit panels autonomously twist and move in response to changing user needs and commands, transforming an open area into different enclosed and luminous spaces. One space can be anything from small individual offices, to open co-working spaces, to a private meeting room. With this system, users have a reconfigurable space that is both efficient and elegant.
