Naturkundemuseum Stuttgart

Naturkundemuseum Stuttgart is an exhibition design for two central halls of a natural history museum in Stuttgart, Germany. Both halls are dedicated to evolution and biodiversity. In the Evolution Hall, six thematic islands with large historic specimens are arranged around a central multimedia table. The Ocean Hall is bathed in blue light and organized by marine habitats, from sea shores to the deep sea. A cutaway model of a sei whale carries a video projection. Daylight from the former courtyards is filtered and colored.

Whitecell Power

This case serves as the office for the Whitecell Power Methanol-Hydrogen Clean Energy Innovation Base. The designers boldly abandoned traditional interior design concepts, extensively using black, white, gray, and metallic materials. They utilized the staggered spaces, color contrasts, variations in light and materials, along with unique installation artworks, to outline a modern, sharp, and technologically advanced spatial tone.

Misterio

Misterio is a lighting collection of pendant lamps and wall lamps inspired by the northern lights. The main elements are made of cast glass with a multicolor effect and are shaped like waves frozen in glass. The glass creates colored highlights that form organic patterns on nearby surfaces. A black metal base in the form of a ring holds an LED strip covered with a matte diffuser. The ring is directed inward, so the lighting is soft and the beauty of the glass is emphasized. The collection can be used for main lighting, task lighting or accent lighting.

Wall Lamp

Double Moon

Double Moon is a wall lamp inspired by a rare astronomical event in which the Earth gains a second, temporary satellite. The lamp has a metal base holding two LED boards, one above and one below, covered by matte diffusers that produce soft light. Light is reflected by glass spheres painted with a mirrored tinted gradient, which creates patterns on the wall and smooth highlights on the glass. The lamp measures 424 mm in height and 120 mm in width. Mounting is possible in a vertical or horizontal position. Three finishes are offered: dark nickel, brass and black.

Level

Level is a collection of pendant lamps designed for interior lighting. The collection includes three models with slightly different shapes. Each lamp is built on a metal frame that holds multi-level amber glass elements with a vertical ornament. The forms recall the silhouette of a city business center at sunset. Two LED light sources are used in every model. The lower source lights the functional areas of a room. The upper source lights the glass and creates reflections on its surface. The three models can be combined into larger compositions.

Frozen

Frozen is a pendant lamp inspired by northern landscapes and forests. The glass shade is based on a fragment of a tree, which was scanned in three dimensions and refined in software so that the wood pattern is more pronounced and the reflections of light are richer. The shade is made of cast glass in transparent, tinted green-blue and matte white finishes, which recall winter scenery. The hole for the replaceable G4 bulb is matte, so the bulb stays hidden and the light is soft. Slim metal fasteners in a brass finish hold the cylindrical glass.
