The Light Conductors

As a product designer, light and colour are the most important aspects in my work, this turned into my fascination for glass.

and cultural heritage stays preserved, by developing them and combining traditional- with industrial techniques.

​‘’The Light Conductors’’ is a material based research about light, colour and glass. I used this graduation project as a steppingstone for my career as product designer. With ‘’The Light Conductors’’ I created my own material library, which I can use for next couple of years as a starting-point for new product designs.

But what is product design exactly? With my ‘‘Conductors,’’ I explore the boundaries between, product and public space which resulted in a pavilion for Rotterdam Central Station. The sun changes during the day and so are the ‘‘Conductors.’’ I use the sun as a source to create moments of wonder and wellbeing. I enhance the effects of the sun, to show something that is not always noticed, but brings us moments of joy.
