\nBei gen\u00fcgend Fallh\u00f6he, in diesem Fall hier 9 Meter, \u00f6ffnen sich die aus Seide gen\u00e4hten Bl\u00fcten wie ein Fallschirmen und beginnen quasi zu bl\u00fchen. Entwickelt, gebaut und gen\u00e4ht wurden die Shylights im Studio Drift<\/a>, die vier Jahre daran werkelten. <\/p>\n Most man-made objects have a static form, while everything natural in this world, including people, are subject to constant metamorphosis and adaptation to their surroundings. Shylight is the result of a question: how can an inanimate object mimic those changes that express character and emotions? After a research period of five years, Studio Drift found the final form to express their idea. It is a lamp that looks alive because of unpredictable, natural-looking movements: it descends to blossom in all its glorious beauty, to subsequently close and retreat upwards again. The Shylight is created out of many layers of silk, which cause it to move with the grace of a dancer. The movement of the lights can be controlled by an iPhone or iPad, opening up a range of possibilities such as a choreography to music. The fact that people react in a spontaneous and emotional way to these performative sculptures shows how the philosophy of Studio Drift functions exactly as it was meant.<\/p>\n The Shylights have a fall distance of 9 meters making it possible to create large compositions for high ceilinged spaces. A shylight installation can always be expended with additional Shylights.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n https:\/\/vimeo.com\/121664339 https:\/\/vimeo.com\/47945023 Bei gen\u00fcgend Fallh\u00f6he, in diesem Fall hier 9 Meter, \u00f6ffnen sich die aus Seide gen\u00e4hten Bl\u00fcten wie ein Fallschirmen und beginnen quasi zu bl\u00fchen.
