DROPLET-INSPIRED CHANDELIERS
Replicating concentric circles formed by droplets hitting the surface of water, the hand-turned acrylic pieces have several circular ridges carved into them; acrylic was the material of choice because of its optical clarity and the way it refracts and reflects light. The components have four distinct finishes, alternating between clear and frosted, each one carefully selected to create a different lighting effect
The droplet-shaped elements hang at graduated heights from the centre of a square mirror-polished ceiling plate to create an upside-down pyramid shape. Сhandelier has a rectangular ceiling plate with suspended elements that take the shape of a wave when viewed from below. The reflective plate adds a twist to the composition by creating a rippled optical illusion
The delicate fibre-optic cables enter the ceiling plates through tiny laser cut holes and are connected to the components via a screw mechanism that is concealed by a polished stainless-steel cap
Whether it’s the acrylic of the components or the stainless steel of the plates and caps, all the materials were selected to both be beautiful and practical in a spa environment: resistant to corrosion and safe to clean
