One Thousand and One Nights

One Thousand and One Nights is the idea of making wooden utensils and structures by using scraps of small to large from various trees which have beautiful natural colors and eye-catching patterns. Warm colors of woods and thousands of pieces with different shapes remind its viewer the atmosphere of Orientalist paintings and the stories of the One Thousand and One Nights. In this design, pieces of wood from hundreds of different trees that once together formed a living plant are reunited to build up a symbolic body, bearing the diversity of tree species in a forest.

Rostrus

Today visual effects for films are primarily created using computer technologies. Despite that, Rostrus was made as a real-life film set with an opportunity for 360 degree shooting. The team followed the traditional approach in order to avoid discordance between actors and digital environment. The model is 1:1000 scale and finely detailed, which allows to shoot from a distance of up to 2 centimeters to the surface.

Core

Core is a kinetic light sculpture in the shape of pine cone made for Kawabata Intcraft, an 84-year-old Japanese-style police office. The copper leaves on the surface slowly open and close through inner mechanical structures. At the same time, the breathing-like movement transforms the building into a living body, symbolizing a breathing heart. To present the harmony of movement and light, different materials were combined and various types of mechanism were designed.
