Scene 01
Nostalgia for a place you have never been.
Lios design does not follow nor does it disrupt. In all honesty, we don't have the design pedigree to responsibly command those provocations. Instead, we build material systems from the ground up, focused intently on the technological solutions for making and the visual and spatial qualities of the output. With a freedom from precedent, 3D printed glass design, for Lios, is emotive expressionism, designing in a dream space of un-reality and un-future to work with forms and visuals that exist nowhere else. Scene 01 features the Tetra hanging light, a seed crystal, both in extant geometry and intrinsic behavior, emanating emergent patters of caustics in its quiet corner. Colors and light gradients are pulled out of a dream and plunge us into a nostalgic future.
Below are a number of other lighting design pieces from my work in partnership with Michael Stern, together, Lios.
