Whereabouts of Switch. by S.Naruse from japan
designer's own words:
When I put on the lights.
I thought that there is a special light and light you want turned on a daily basis.
Also light of both, there is no change in the act, there is no change in the situation.
The light that turned on a daily basis, it is necessary to obscure the action more.
The special light, it is necessary to put meaning to the act.
I thought to think so, and not only in the design of light, and there is a design of light considering how the switch in line with the act.
Design of light to afford the act. And I aim to look good no matter where, the form with the margin.
Key Visal//Things become switch is full of your daily routine. If you put the key in there, the act of returning home will be smooth. Put a ring when you propose. Put the amulet when you study for the test. But, figurines of birds look good this form.Now, turn on the lights as what you use today.
Concept//Light has a purpose, but the switch is only possible with a simple mechanism On and Off. If there is a switch in accordance with the purpose to light, the situation is meaningful Everything is to switch on the light. It can also have the sense that it simplifies the act of day-to-day, to the situation interesting.
Scene//For example, study time before the test, if you turn on the light with the amulet, it will be difficult to turn off the lights. When you propose, if you turn on the light with the engagement ring, it will be a romantic rendition. In addition, by using the switch intentionally, the meaning of the situation will change with time and place. It would be curious similar to mischief springs.
Form//The Japanese garden, there is a technique to capture the natural landscape in the garden, it is a component. It is referred to as a “borrowed landscape”. I aim to capture the switch object in the form of light, such as “borrowed landscape”. As trap birds who played childhood, and supported by a small branch a large ball, tied to a string twigs, that form has led to the components of the light.
Spec//By the object is placed in front of the sensor, the switch is actuated. Microcomputer to make adjustment of the timing of the switch and dimming, the processing of the sensor. The dial-in for the adjustment, the inside of the hood.
